      @Tago-Mago I grew up watching the likes of Monty Python and Flying Circus, and it genuinely shaped my sense of humor. I love British humo(u)r.

        to be fair, Germans can be funny as well, it just doesn't translate and will never resonate beyond the German-speaking countries due to the language barrier

          enough off-topic. I bought a North Face duffel, mainly because I prefer the U-opening to the straight opening of the Ortliebs

                  Yeah G got me to look at Ortlieb singing their praises and I got a 110L dry duffel that is simply incredible. The robustness of the tarpaulin and seam sealing, excellent ergonomics, functionality, and the wheels just glide. It’s incredible. I’m nowhere near needing service on it but good to know it’s there if I ever need it.

                  Got the 110 l duffel myself, but then realized that it is so long that I had to drop it in oversized luggage twice already....

                    not true, but you'll never know since you cannot understand Loriot e.g.

                      I ordered the Peak Design Travel Duffel 35l as well. Chose it for the 4 outer pockets, the multiple carrying options and got it with two packing cubes (small & medium) which will fit exactly on the bottom of the duffel. Think it will nicely pair with the DSPTCH Utility Tote, and either together, or just one of them can work as carry on luggage.

                            That happens with my 140, but on the basis that I often have to travel with a rod or ski tube, I have to go to oversized luggage anyway.....

                                I’m a huge Ortlieb fan. Have their waterproof roll bags in three sizes and they are all I take on multi-day bike trips.
                                I’ve started having probs with their buckles. Three have partly broken and, although still usable, they are a hassle to unbuckle.
                                Next trip I plan on getting a dozen spare buckles. These things will outlast me.

                                The journey is the objective.

                                            When it arrived, the box it was in was beyond small and weighed the square root of fuck all, I could not believe it contaned an actual bag. And that was with the shoulder strap which I probably wont use that much, the way I intend to use it...
