MG TD TF 1500 - Water proof suitcase/suitcase bag

Hey guys, For long trips what are you using to either cover a roll-a-board suitcase or what do you use as a water proof clothing bag for the rear luggage rack. I am NOT interested in a trunk or rigid case of any type. In the past I have just gone low budget and double bagged my suit case with large tough garbage bags..I am thinking something a bit upscale from that, but below a rigid trunk or case.

Thank you. Regards, Tom

I've used waterproof bags by Sealine for diving or kayaking for years. Completely waterproof and tough. Available in all kinds of sizes and colors.

Tom,
We have been using a Rubber Maid box since the Skyline Soiree back in 1993,,, A few bungee cords hold it onto the rack,, I attached caster wheels to the bottom so I could just attaché bungee cords to it and drag/roll it into the hotel and right to the room,, The item on top of the box is a wicker basket wrapped in a plastic bag that we used to carry for special occasions,,
It's water proof, and strong,,,

I should have added that the side curtains get bungeed on the top of the box,,

Sorry Tom no real suggestion. When I'm not using my low scale garbage bags for smaller items, I use the plastic trunk I found at Lowe's. It has two wheels at one end and a handle at both ends. Relatively easy to handle.

I try to keep the profile low enough to see out the rear view mirror.

This is today in the garage ready for tomorrow's trip to the GoF in VT.
