Boot bag for Scotland tour

[M6 WSC]

Morning all,

I'm after a boot bag for an 8 day tour of Scotland this August with the Mrs. I have a full cage and apart from the SBFS option (they're out of stock), does anyone have one for sale, or another waterproof alternative?

I'll be at Stoneleigh if anyone has one to sell who's attending.

Cheers,

M6 WSC

What about a rucksack in a dry bag.

[Tom Frankland (T3OMF)]

This is the one we use on our European tours, the proper dry bags and you can use the clip to attach it to the cage

I like those bags a lot Tom.

 

It is the 40ltr on the car.

 

Just ordered one.

 

Lot cheaper from the website in Toms link.

Just had the same conversation with the wife, I'll measure it later.

I think it's the 60 though

If only a different colour

They also do them in black on their website.

Thanks for the advice so far team! So are we recommending the 60L or the 40L?.....

Also, what do you think of the idea of undoing the drop links (and securing them so they don't rattle) on my front and rear ARB's for the trip, to give a bit of a softer ride for the Scottish highland roads?

[Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup)]

Where about in the highlands are you going.

 

The roads are really smooth and in fabulous condition up there.

We're going:

London - Glasgow - Fort William - Skye (+seaplane flight) - Durness - Aviemore - Edinburgh - Keswick - London!

[Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup)]

We are going to a lot of those places this year also.

 

Here is a link to my thread from last year as it mentions the roads and also a few of the places you are going.

 

You will love it up there.

There is a choice of colours and D rings to secure the bag using Rokstraps

Nice and cheap then......................  not    

[Sand Dancer]

No - but it's orange!!

I hadn't spotted your LOMO ones, the only feature the Touratech ones have extra is the securing D rings. They work out at £65 for D rings!
