So basically when I'm on campus I have a shoulder bag that hangs behind me and when I'm biking around town or commuting I have a setup that looks like the image below. My only complaint is that I probably could have gone with the bigger Nelson Longflap saddlebag, but I make do just fine with the Nelson.

I really enjoy this setup. It has made commuting, running errands, and light touring much more enjoyable, but my poor backpack is lonely now.
Ok. that carradice bag, will it hold some work clothes, a pair of shoes and a lunch? Just trying to get an idea of size
