Hi mb4807
Ive had the GL for some years now , its done Marocco 3 x and the Pyrennes half a dozen plus lots more
I bought mine for the "OFF ROAD" qualities and no need for frame, it isn't 100% waterproof i reckon even from new 80% so i use dry bags inside ,all medium or little and write on them what's in each !!!
Thats the worst thing about them, packing , but you do learn to pack the right way.
I looked into the likes of the Magadan bags but the frame put me off

Ohh nearly forgot , mines a COYOTE and i find it more than big enough, i was carrying enough gear for a month in the RxR the next size up (can't remember the name) is massive !!

First class photos and write-up Phil. :023:

Taken me a while to get through it all, but thoroughly enjoyed it.

Shame about the rain, but the good thing is the wet keeps the tourists hunkered up in their hotels keeping them well out the way of us touraphobic folk!

Hope the old thyroid starts behaving itself again and doesn't get too much in the way of new adventures...

Cheers Pleiades

I sure can babble on !!!! and thanks for your wishes on the Thyriod ! i wouldn't wish it on anyone
