I don't like carrying water with me, but if I don't, my route is constrained to where there are water fountains. If I forget and deviate, I'm in bad shape. I have a water bottle with a mesh handle thing that makes it easier to carry. A pack of Sport Beans fits perfectly in the little zipper pouch it has. I don't know that the "bonk" would be instantly remedied by 100 cal of sugar + a bit of salt, but it couldn't hurt. Anybody here use those "fuel belts"? I hate the feeling of anything bouncing on my hips/back/belly, but I also hate carrying stuff in my hand. So I may get one, though I don't like spending the $ if I'm not going to use it...
Anyhoo, fish, maybe carry a pack of beans for use as needed next time. I do like the wheels idea. Makes me think of Phillip Pullman's books, His Dark Materials.
