The Revelate bags may look a little odd in comparison to the earthy vibe of Carradice, Baggins, Berthoud etc...but I guarantee you they are purpose built to survive some pretty extreme use. I happen to know the man behind the company and every bag he makes was built out of first hand experience that led to a need. He lives in Alaska now, but he was part of our circle of MTB friends here in Colorado. He would take off in the middle of the night in a snow storm to go make an ice cave and sleep in it just because.
Eric is one of those guys I look up to and admire for his seemingly bottomless craving for adventure. Over the years I'll get forwarded pics or videos of him from some crazy environment in a far away land. Totally alone, completely self supported. Using equipment he designed and made by hand. That's commitment. Not sure carrying a raft and oars constitutes "ultra light" packing, but I'm gonna guess these guys dont skimp function. This showed up in my email a couple years ago. A super enjoyable video of Eric and friends touring the coast. http://vimeo.com/25943565 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
