I have to report - to the mirthful edification of some of the earlier thread participants, no doubt - I've gone over to the light side, and ordered a small hydration pack to go with a Revelate seat and frame bag for the upcoming season's bikepacking. Building up that rim brake diamond frame 29er, though I might still stuff a rack on the back as a fender/ emergency 12 pack hauler.

nice... can't wait to see your setup.
i'm looking at winter camping gear right now. snow in the mountains, and early season might call for skis or hikes.
thinking about getting a used bivy for late fall / winter camping. the contrail is awesome, but won't take a snow load.
