Any recommendations for a light weight bag to hold dslr with 105 lens plus another to lenses up to 200mm.

Must be water proof and usable when I ride my mountain bike

lowepro AW 75 (think their is a smaller one...)

I love mine...
 
I use an Ortlieb Aqua Zoom. 100% waterproof, chest mounted so quick access and takes my 40d plus 24-105 and hood. Extra lenses go in the Camelbak though.
 
I have used a Kata 123-Go 20 very succesfully on the mountain bike. It has a AW cover which should protect the camera from the worst of the rain, but I must admit I have not used it when wet yet.

Normally just carry a couple of lenses in it to keep pack weight down, overall the best way I've found to date.
 
For mountain biking you will want something that sits close to your body with a good carrying system. I would recommend the FStop Gear range, it sounds like the Kenti would be the sort of size you need, but there are plenty of people out there who cycle with the Loka.
 
I use my Digital Holster 50 when on my MTB, when really bad, and it has to be, have you used the free rain covers available at any supermarket, called a carrier bag, tie over camera bag, cut a hole in bottom and you have a rain cover, just need a rubber band.
 
I use a LowePro Rez0 160 to carry a Nikon d40/zoom, a Nikkor 70-300vr and a SB400 flash as well as spare batterys, filters etc. It sits on my chest and a couple of carribiners clip to the straps on my camelbak. Unclip one carribiner to slip off camera bag and rucksak.
