    Not all of us live in the thirsty West. Some of us have plentiful, untreated ground water. Granted it still takes electricity to run the pump (and at 300 feet, a hand pump is out of the question), but in comparison it's a small usage. And when you're washing your plastic bags in the same load as your other hand-wash dishes, there's some extra rinse water but no extra soap or wash water.

    Gooey stuff

    I put my potentially gooey stuff in plastic bags. Afterwards, I have something to put the gooey stuff in when I stuff it in my pockets with the rest of my stuff. So my stuff doesn't get gooey.

    And back to the topic, powerbar shots are great. I had one yesterday and FLEW through my ride. For lactic acid buildup, though, you can't beat Cytomax.
    To train a dog, you must be more interesting than dirt.
