Thanks for responses,
so far i have following ideas:
1) I got tripod bag for my SLIK 500 (not 700) - this will be mounted on
rear rack
2) There i plan to put two Ortlieb side bags also (maybe later)
3) I have fixed front fork, so i will get another rear rack, and mount
it reverse on front fork (2 screws)
4) Used Lowepro Magnum AW - i got good price from local photo list
member here. I will add more padding, and mount it on front rack.
Handlebar bag probably is better, but they are rather small, and starts
from USD 100. Maybe i can modify it to put on handlebar also...
I'll post some pictures, when this will be done :)

Hi all,
I like to travel with bicycle, and i'm doing it already for some time.
So far i mounted regular backpack on my bicycle, and also fixed tripod
on one side.
Some kind of custom solution. But it has some problems, vibration,
backpack shaking, tripod was repaired once after such trip.
Also, getting camera and lens out of backpack was slow.
Anyone has some secrets? I would like to hear success stories and share
experiences...
I've toured using a rack and panniers with the tripod strapped to the top of
the rack. Camera and bits went in a handlebar bag. I have a photo of the
set-up somewhere. I'll see if I can dig it out tomorrow (can't do it now, I
can hear a beer calling my name so I have to go out to rescue it, and make
sure there aren't a few others in need of my atttention...)
Bob
