I think @photoben had issues with his cameras getting damaged from vibration from a solid fork and rack combo.

Indeed I did. Hence designing my photo bike with Dear Susan, so my front rack is mounted via elastomers @edmundro idea, which dampened all vibrations. It’s great for transporting beer because of that.
But the problems I had with a solid rack was fairly long term (couple of months). And heavy lenses. I think you’ll be fine with a smaller camera for a short trip. Top tube bag sounds fine.
Quick question for the photographers out there:
I am considering taking our mirrorless camera (fuji xt20) on our next trip, just one lens, some batteries and a small tripod, but I am considering how to store it in a readily accessible position? What solutions are you guys using? I have the front rack top platform free for this trip, I am trying to find a way to securely harbess it there, and proof it from water, dirt and vibrations in a stable way..
