[QUOTE="NWDirt, post: 1199717, member: 72763"] bleakness, I totally understand. I wear the ogio fanny pack that is awesome for tools, camer (well built), until it rains or you get it covered with mud. The it is painful how heavy everything gets. I totally soaked it in silicon spray but it still gets heavy when we hit the mud. Anyone who has a camelback over and attached to their chest protector back ends up having the front of the chest protector ride up under their chin. Some people zip tye the front to their belt to keep it down. Thats a PITA for removing. The ogio fanny pack will support the back of the chest protectors weight so it feels natural and doesnt ride up. With the fanny pack over your kidneybelt and snugged up, you feel even more protected. The camelback I bought was just a canvas cover over the bladder with D rings to attach it to my airframe. 100oz UNBottle. I bought the ogio backpack and took out the 70oz water bladder and put in my 100oz cameback water bladder and it fits perfectly except I sweat all over under the backpack on my back when I ride in the summer. These ballistic jerseys are not the answer IMHO, especially for a climate where you have to layer up for whatever comes your way. I rode in northern Baja for 3 days and one guy had one. We went from 50 deg F to 85 deg F and he was miserable. It was sweaty and chaffing or too cold. BTW the first time that 16 oz water bottle falls out of your pack and your left with no water, you will really think your stupid for not having a 40 dollar camelback. Anybody have a killer protection/drink/storage system they think really covers all bases? Do we need to start a company and sell a decent product? [/QUOTE]
