Whats in your commuting backpack and what type?

[Active Monkey]

What make and model back pack do you use when commuting and whats in it?

 

I use a k-way executive.

 

Inside is:

 

Ipad 4

Big ass 17 inch dell notebook ( company issue)

Keys

Access card for building

Id

Lunch

Work clothes

Bike lock

Slops for shower

Towel

Phone

 

All an all quite a weight...

I hate cycling with anything on my back. I even hate saddle bags.

 

Leave all at work in advance ... I take nothing!

Good thinking to post this on a public forum.. Nothing like letting potential abusers know what most of us carry...

K-way mini day pack ... lasted well (almost 10 years)

 

Small pocket: Chain lube, sunblock, Tabard, Note

Bigger: Goretex rain jacket, large cable ties to apprehend villian, a plastic or two, Leyne pump

Outside strap: Pepper spray canister

 

Also dont like cycling with anything on my back, but since saddle bags became uncool .. whats a man to do. So now on mtb events this bag comes with, but with a spares pack, tubes, emergency inflator, shock pump, first aid kit.

 

On my commuter bike I still have a saddle bag with multitool and tube so I dont ride with all this cr@p every day, need to stash some shopping in there quite often.

Best bag i have ever used , mine is 4 years old now and still has not gone soft or lost its shape . its done about 20 000km ( actually its way more than this ,im just being conservative ) on my back in all weather . takes laptop , cell , clothes , food ( just not shoes , leave those at work )

 

they are not cheap but so worth the money , as it will last you well like for ever .
