When you're small like me, packing is simple. :D

This is my three day weekend backpack. Three changes of clothes, extra shoes, swimsuit, a couple of extra shirts, socks......all in one bag. :dthumb:

My ex, who's 6'2" took twobackpacks for all his stuff (he packs more than I do and had his bags stack on top of each other (no pic). :lol:

I have a hard tail bag I'll be using for the Suches trip. :)

Me? Shop? NOOOO!!!!!! :panic:

Moira had a couple of pairs of jeans and some shirts she handed down to me. Granted I have to roll the pants legs up a couple of times. :lol: I think (but not positive) they were her daughter's and she outgrew them quickly so they were still in like new condition.

I looked at the top two when I was looking to ride from AK to NC for the first Twowheelforum rally... but now that I've done a 4000 mile, 17day trip... i wouldn't bother. I fit everything I needed in the cortech sport saddle bags and tail bag, and strapped my tent, sleeping bag and pad on top.

I was over packed on that trip... had I not packed all that extra bullshit.... I could have litterally fit everything in my cortech bags, other than the sleeping pad as it's just too long to fit.

the problem with a bag that big is you'll be tempted to FILL it. you'll carry WAY to much shit. :2cents:
