I also plan to have a handlebar bag.
Back drybag is very lite, is only holding a couples sleeping bag and pillows. Only secured via cargo net (we’ve packed one spare).
It kind of rides up against my seat bag which is what I’m worried about.

Not pictured here is the rest of our camping gear which will be on the other bike 🙂
Can you mount the dry bag crosswise instead?
Where is your tail light? Is it visible from behind? Will the dry bag droop down to cover your light?
I think it’s fine. I ran with a similar but much worse setup on my first trip: tent, sleeping bag and sleeping pad strapped on top of the rear rack, wedged under a blackburn saddlebag.

Hey Breezer Radar Expert bro 😉
Yeah, how you gonna get covered in back mud when it rains?
Realistically make sure those materials aren’t rubbing too much. A chunk of duct tape for where they may contact one another is probably enough.
Why not take the seatpost bag off the post and just strap it to the top of the other bag around the rack? Or simply get a larger dry bag to fit everything.
I think it looks good. Maybe a strap or two to hold the bag on the rack a bit more secure. That net looks elasticated and might wobble out of place.
