Leaving for a 15 day trip. How much can I pack in the El Sandoval bag? My first impressions and a recommendation for a design tweak.

Great video! Nice to see how a seasoned traveler does the packing. Looking for similar packing cubes now! Thanks

“I’ve got issues, I have a lot of issues” LOL that part made me laugh hard. Great video, and those are some solid tips for the packing cubes you use!

@withPercy Ай бұрын

You know I have issues. 🤣 Those Acteon cubes are the best. And they've been working out very well with the bag on this trip.

Great stuff! Thank you for your rundown and for the constructive critics. I'm looking forward to using mine ASAP. Enjoy the 2nd leg of your trip my friend

Thanks! Having a blast, but wish you were riding this with me. BTW… since had dinner, I now have 17 HOG 50 states knocked out!

MOLLE, which stands for Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment, is a system that allows users to attach pouches, holsters, and other accessories to their gear using heavy-duty nylon webbing. This is arguably THE BEST system the military infused into gear! 21:30 - Brilliant observations and I agree with you! Fantstic video!!! Safe travels!!!

@withPercy Ай бұрын

Yeah, man. They hit it out of the park with the new system. So much better than that Vietnam LCE crap that we inherited when I joined. I hated that junk.

@TobyNorthEN Ай бұрын

@@withPercy I remember carrying that s***! LMAO!!! Initially, after the MOLLE first came around, I thought we looked like a bunch of spiders with stuff attached and sticking out everywhere...lol.

Good strategy with the double-sided packing cubes, especially for managing the clean /dirty clothing.

@withPercy 10 күн бұрын

Thanks. It’s worked well for me for a long time. Whether it’s travel on a bike or otherwise.

Loved the looks of that bad but couldn’t agree more with your observations. V2 if made I’m sure is gonna be even better. I’m also going to have to checkout those packing cubes. Very cool 👍🏻

Those packing cubes are the best. And I've gone through a LOT of brands over the years.

Nice, thorough review. One of the best features of this bag, for me, is that each strap on the bag has velcro ends to help secure excess strap lengths from flapping around in the wind. I can’t stand having to manage excess strap ends when packing most bags for motorcycle trips.

@withPercy Ай бұрын

Yeah, I definitely like that feature as well. I just back from my trip last weekend and my after trip video on the bag drops on the channel tomorrow morning.

@plattplatty5886 Ай бұрын

@@withPercywill definitely check out the new video. Rode with the bag for the first time over Memorial Day weekend and really enjoyed it. Thank you, too, for the tips about the smaller bags for clothing management. Will try that out when I hit the road for a 12-day swing through the desert SW and Rockies in a couple weeks.

oof bad name given the cultural connotations with 'sandoval' right now!

@ScottSpencer716 Ай бұрын

I definitely love my bag. I just did two weeks in Tennessee and had no problem packing everything into the bag. And I still had quite a bit of space that I had folded the bag into. So I definitely could easily pack for 5 weeks
