EDIT: Sorry, I was tired when I posted this, and didn’t realise that it made no sense to anyone else. I’ve got a set of panniers for the bike that attach under the seat, and they hold the smaller things, like my clothes and toiletries.
I remembered after I’d already attached my camping equipment to the top of the seat, meaning that it would have to be removed to fit the other luggage.
Yes, exactly this 🙈
