Dryzone bags are deceptively large. My Dryzone 100 is pretty huge IMO.

I had the 100 as well before upgrading to the 200. The 200 fits a 400 DO WITH hood attached and the body. I can fit my 300 2.8 in there with body, sans hood, but without extra TCs. The bag is a monster, weighs like 8 pounds, but you know everything is safe in there. Rather easy access too.

With hood = ultra huge :p I honestly won't mind something smaller. I rarely take an army of lenses into the water.

That looks troublesome to put in and take out. You can (and should) easily afford one of the Lowepro Dryzone bags.

I've always wanted to try one of the smaller dryzone rovers, but it couldn't accommodate my 300 2.8 like my Dryzone 200AW could.

Can I cross a river with these bags?

They are completely waterproof (at least with minor submersion, not sure how deep you can go with them). I went ocean kayaking and white water rafting with them before.

Yes. The bag will float too. Before I settled on the Dryzone bags (about 2 years ago), I read some reviews where people used them for spelunking, completely submerging the bags--no leaks. But as with all things, test the goods before taking them out in the field. Can't go wrong with the bathtub test.

They have a lifetime warranty too. I had the zippers on my waterproof pod go wonky (wasn't lubricating it properly), and lowepro replaced the entire pod for free, and threw in some free zipper lubricant. No complaints to speak of. I use mine on Kayaks and Waverunners. I hose my bag down after each outing and I've never seen a speck of water inside the waterproof pod.

Have it pre-ordered already. I did it on Amazon like immediately right when they became available.

I am a sucker for collector's editions of games. I love the extra crap I get with them.

Waits for Omar to make a hoarder joke....

Try it--once you go dryzone, you don't go back :D The pod is difficult to open/close (it's heavy-duty), but the case inside the pod can be zipped too. So if you want to use it as a regular bag, zip the inner bag, leave the pod unzipped, and it'll be nice and easy to open/close for regular use. I always take mine on trips--it's thick and well padded, and will protect against major bumps/bruises.

Excellent!!! Im looking forward to watching it later :D

Really? Heard he landed on his bad shoulder due to the pile up in the last sprint :mad:

Final Sprint here:

QUOTED IMAGE

Androni-Venezuela manager Gianni Savio is apparently flying in to apologize to Mark personally and to the event for his rider, Roberto Ferrari, for what sounds like an idiot move which caused the 60kph pile-up in the final moments of the race. :mad:

QUOTED IMAGE

It was a good, I only saw the last 20km or so but it was a good finish.

Geez... That's crazy the manager is flying in... but seriously it's amazing how many pro's don't know how to ride in a group properly, it's really quite pathetic at times.
