haven't done a lot of touring rides huh?
sometimes it just happens.
I have an older Joe Rocket tailbag with a rain cover that has elastic on the bottom which keeps it from flying off. I've used it in all manner of weather (rain, sleet, snow) and it has yet to get water in it.
I have a Nelson Rigg tank bag that I just put on last year but haven't taken any large trips with. Also comes with a rain cover which has survived commuting to work in the rain with no issues.
I've discovered that on long rides, backpacks tend to tire me out because of extra drag and because it traps heat
