I’ve got a bikepacking trip coming up and the forecast looks like it’s going to be several days of steady rain. I don’t mind riding wet, but I really don’t want my clothes, sleeping bag, and food turning into a soggy mess.

For those of you who’ve done long rainy tours, what’s worked best for keeping your stuff dry? Dry bags? Liner bags? Trash compactor bags inside panniers? I’m curious if there are any tricks you’ve learned that go beyond just waterproof panniers. Appreciate any tips—especially from folks who’ve had to deal with multiple wet days in a row!
