Default BoB-trailer: Are there different bags (maby with outer-pockets?) available?

Hello people,

I'm considering to buy an bob-trailer. There is only one thing i don't like: All my luggage dissapears into the big 'dry sak'. As i'm an control-freak, i would love to have an bag with some features to organise my luggage. Inside the bag, or outside the bag with outer-pockets.
Does anybody know if there is an bag like that for the bob-trailer? As far as i know for now, there is not such bag.

Off course i can spread the luggage out over more plastic sacks inside the dry sak. But to an control-freak like me, that's not enough... ;-)

Greetz from Holland,

Marco

Hi Marco

I can't answer your question directly but I have some suggestions:

(a) If you use the BOB bag, you could use stuff sacks or dry bags to organise your gear. I do this backpacking as the norm.
(b) Some riders have used backpacks instead of the BOB bag, this gives you some pockets etc plus the ability to go backpacking;
(c) I find the Crazyguyonabike website a great resource for this sort of question. You might want to check it out. Lots of tourers hanging out there.

Regards
Andrew
