versatile camera bag?

i want to start bringing my camera gear out with my mountain biking, snowboarding, wakeboarding, etc... i am looking for a bag that can hold my body, 3 lenses, 2 flashes and a couple accessories.

i want something that is very comfortable, not too bulky, has a little padding for when i fall/drop it, water resistant, dust resistant... you get the idea.

anyone have any suggestions on what to get? i know a couple of you mountain biking guys have the insider info....

take a look over at tamrac.com

they have awsome bags/cases and just about every type and size, plus an easy site to navigate

Lowe Pro have a huge range of things that you would be interested in as well.

any specific models to look at from tamrac or lowe pro?

thanks :D

depends on what you want, an over the shoulder bag, a bum bag, a backpack ???
I would also add crumpler to that list. they make bags specifically for cycle couriers, but they have recently started making camera bags and the look quite impressive.

Depends on exactly how water resistant and dust resistant you want it. Check out the LowePro Dry Zone backpacks for the best I've seen that way. Definitely get something nylon (not canvas) and without a leather bottom.

Most bags can handle some water, and if you know you have a good chance of your equipment getting wet you could put everything in ziploc bags before putting it in the bag. I do this when I go sea kayaking, but I don't use that stuff out on the water. It sits inside hatches, but they leak a little and everything ends up at least a little wet by the end of a trip. I use small LowePro bags, like their lens cases and a TLZ2 - none of which have the AW covers or are designed for that. Never had a problem, but be sure to get the stuff out of the ziplocs and really let it dry out when you get home.

i definately want a backpack style bag, i will be heading up & down some decent terrain and need both hands free. the bag won't get soaked, it just needs to deal with snowmelt & an occassional small splash of water.

skyman, crumplers look good thanks for the suggestion.

checking out the lowepro & tamrac now....
