     well you guys will be totally disgusted with my touring finesse, I carry the bare minimum in a bum bag and err post the rest on to my destination.  
 It has never failed me - well apart from the time an old gixxer packed up on me 300 miles short of where I wanted to be (Andermatt).  I slept Ok for 2 nights while it was fixed but got really strange looks as the only clothes I had were my leathers, waterproof jacket, spare socks and pants...
 I've never learnt though and continue the same way today, works great if you are running from a central point for 1-2 day run outs...
