Bag recommendations?

    I usually commute to work from Naas to Dublin during the summer months and its a great way to get training in. 
    I have to bring my work clothes with me though and the bag I'm currently using isn't great...  this is the only drawback (if you can stomach the traffic and the juggernauts nearly sucking you under their wheels..).
    Does anyone have any recommendations for a comfortable, cycle specific bag?

    I've been using a Deuter Trans Alpine backpack for the last couple of years on my 30km daily round trip - fits everything I need and I really don't notice it!

    I use this for the daily commute, fits the laptop, lunch and clothes in and its proper waterproof.

    The reflective strips are good and nice attachment points included to put a light on the bag also

    Lidl have bags at the moment(last weeks specials) for 15 euro. Lots of padding in the straps,lots of room in the main part with two side pockets and i found out last night when the bag tipped over that it has a built in fluro yellow rain cover in a pocket at the bottom of the bag. I used it this morning and the bag is completely dry and its pissing out. I'd check them out before spending lots on any others

    +1 on the Deuter.

    I have the Transalpine 30 and it can comfortably take everything I regularly carry and a bit more in an emergency!!
