equipment bag

[Jo-n-NY]

I had seen a great bag in the Terry catalog months ago and decided to order it now. Well, I do not see it on the website any longer so I gather it is no longer available.

I want to change from using a backpack to store my helmet, shoes, etc. so everything is ready to go in a flash and I want to keep my change of clothes separate from my gear. Anyway, I see they have another bag called the cube bag, but I liked the other blue bag, cannot remember the name because it had an insulated removable bag for water bottles.

I searched here on TE as this where I primarily shop, but I cannot find a bag that separates gear from the clothes. Does anyone here have a bag for your cycling gear that you really like?

I think I know the bag you are talking about and just saw it in a catalogue in the last week. But it's at home & I am at work. (Well, sorta). I'll look this evening.

I have a cheapo bag I bought from Target. I think it is Eddie Bauer brand or whatever. It is a gym bag style with a shoe compartment that has mesh front so I put my stinky sweaty shoes in there and they dry. In the main compartment it is roomy enough to store my helmet and a few other things like an extra shirt or arm warmers. Theres a zipper pocket at the top of the flap of the bag that I keep my various gloves in, and in the side pockets I keep some lube and a rag and any gels or food products I need. Can't fit my bottles in there, but if I unzip the side pocket I can put a few in there, just have to be careful not to jostle it too much or they fall out...

I have the black cube bag, and I do like it quite a lot. I got it for a trip I was taking a year or so ago, but it's very handy for just keeping my gear all together all the time. It doesn't have an insulated bag for water bottles, but I have an insulated lunch bag that I use for that--it fits into the cube fine.

What like most about the cube are its yellow lining, which makes things easy to see and find, and the numerous pockets on the inside.

Anyway, in case you can't find the other bag, the cube is very nice.

I have the cube bag and love it. The only negative is, for me, that the helmet doesn't fit into its assigned pocket. Instead I put the shoes in there and leave the helmet in that section, but not in a pocket.

Thanks all. I wasn't sure about the cube, but you all told what I needed to know. I will get it. EMS has it on sale for $36.00 :)
