Have had mine about a year and a half and has been on the bike the last 20,000 miles through 100+ degree days, freezing temps, and pouring rain.  It has held its shape and stayed waterproof for all the stuff my wife packs into it.

    I'm just back from an 860 mile round trip to Vermont. My Road Ready bags worked great (first trip with the bags). We didn't get any rain  so I can't speak to their waterproof ability but I have no doubt they will be fine. 

    Kevin...... thanks for fixing my link in my previous post.

    Glad to hear you had a good Vermont ride Mike, rt 100 has to be one of my favorite roads. Did you make it up to the Lake Champlain Island region ? Vermont is like riding in a Norman Rockwell painting.

    We didn't make it there but we did ride up to Maine for a day.
    The weather was crazy. The day we went to Maine it was 93 degrees. A day or two later it never got above 65 degrees in Vermont.
