Thanks for the post.

The text size in the one I linked to is perfectly readable for me, its 5pt in size. The only time its a struggle is if I'm really tired. The zipper version is slightly bigger - maybe 1/4" more in LxW. The non-zipper one fits in my blazer pockets, but not much room.

The one in the link below is the closest "waterproof and durable" format, but it is a good bit larger and no zipper closure. It does have good reviews on Amazon and other places:

I may just go with the zip-loc bag method. That doesn't help on the page durability in-use, but will protect it while riding along.
