lol how everyone else does it, bungee straps + cargo net.
I'm crap at strapping stuff down though always resort to gaffa tape for added security.
Or you could buy a cheap topbox and do a yorkshire top box as per PT6's post.

Indeed. A bit of lateral thinking will get you there. Bungee straps and cargo nets are the way forward.

Put them in a bin-bag too for weather protection.

I discovered the hard way that my sleeping bag carry-bag is not waterproof (luckily it was only a light shower of rain.)

Gaffa Tape, Lots of Bungees and a cargo net, can't go wrong... :)
