bikers i need tip on transporting dslr

how do you guys carry your cameras?
tank, back, tail bags?

usually if i'm not going far i just throw my shoulder bag on. if i'm goin a ways i just throw a small pelican case with one lens and my camera in a tank bag

I just open one of the side bags and put my camera bag in.
I can also put another change of clothes,
Other side case can hold food, water, laptop more clothes, extra money. Sleeping bag and tent and tripod and camp chair and Barbque can then go across the rear seat.

hey, who's bringing the keg?

i just got me an axio hardpack its got a velcro strap inside and a laptop pocket.
i decided to get extended warranty coverage for the camera covers it for four years so i dont have to worry about the camera shaken up too much.

thanx for the info.

I had an Axio backpack in college - it worked great with the laptop but I wouldnt use it for the DSLR. I'd recommend one of Tamrac's backpacks for your DSLR.

thanx for the info danny boy,
