That will also double as my purse (Yes, I'm a middle aged female) at work. I need to be able to carry my stuff. My commute is 23 miles RT. I have been using my panniers to carry my change of clothes and lunch but my personal things like wallet, phone, medications (several), and various other purse crap has been stuffed into a ziplock bag. I have a CamelBak 'Siren' but it doesn't have the cargo space that I need so I have not been using it. I have also managed to leave without water bottles 2 days in the past week due to this problem.
I am not style conscious but I do place a heavy value on function. My Siren CamelBak is great for what I purchased it for when I bought it 3 years ago, but it isn't cutting it now.
Any suggestions? I bought small backpack thinking I could just use the bladder from the Siren but even though it is a small pack it is too big and there is nothing to support the bladder.
I don't think I want a fanny pack. I have a big enough butt as it is.....
