His findings: a small amount of gear can be packed in more aerodynamical ways than a large amount of gear. While I, too, applaud the effort, haven't cycle tourists known this since the 1890s?

I guess I would have liked to see one more (realistic) category: Stuff the bike packing bags full, then transfer that dunnage to a single pannier and strap that single pannier down tight with compression straps to collapse the remaining unfilled volume and prevent the bag from flapping in the wind or adopting an irregular shape.
