Another vote for the Saddlesack. I have a medium so I do not need a rack in
the back. Currently it is loaded with a tent, summer sleeping bag and a few
other items. It is not even close to being stuffed. Make runs to the
grocery store with it and can take home any number of items. Medium or
large
I'll second the recommendation for the Carradice Nelson. It will do what you're
wanting, for years. But if you want to use it as a book bag off the bike, there
are panniers better suited to that.

and (with the Large) some groceries on the way home.

rear rack too, so panniers are another way to go, of course, but my first
thought is f
