I have a couple backpacks, 70oz and a 100oz, camelback Mule. I also take more stuff than needed, but believe in preparation. Sometimes I find something I want to bring home and the Mule unzips and has a large capacity pack. I would think that the drawback for you Florida riders is the humidity. BUT, heck if you aint sweating you aint really riding!
