If you read the original post, I said I do have panniers. But I am an outdoorsmen and will be doing much Hiking, Climbing, Kayaking, and other fun things along the way. I don't plan on staying in any hotels really and this pack will serve me well to be able to park and lock up my bike somewhere at the bottom of a forest and take everything with me and come back for it in a day or 2.
