Oh and in case you were wondering, the plastic box isn't my normal long distance touring setup. This is how we usually tour:


T-bag on the front obviously, and an osprey porter 46 on the back. We love this setup. 76 liters of storage possible, and you can go from biking to backpack on back, bike in one hand and t-bag in the other in just a few minutes. Plus the porter 46 is airline carry on legal, so the bike can be boxed in the hold with liquids and tools, and everything else comes aboard.
