+1 for bar bags.
I use one of the Riv bar tubes on my custom with a small ps camera,
and food in it.
I've not noticed any effect on handling.

Thanks for the terrific write up on the brevet. As for handlebar
bags: for touring (which I do with only rear panniers as I motel
tour), I use a lightweight small bag on my handlebars that carries
my point&shoot digital camera and food. The bag is an unmentionable
brand but it is quite light. A headlight would still fit on the top
of the bars. I cannot notice any difference in handling of the
Bleriot (or for that matter, the Waterford) with that small bag.
And since I mostly ride both bikes without a bag, I think I would
notice if the bag had some effect. If needed, I can unzip the bag,
grab a bar, tear the wrapper with my teeth and eat it while riding.
Not my first choice, but I've done it to hang with folks.
A small, light bag might work on the Roadeo.
Happy riding,
Joan

Congrats. Definitely shows my rides over the weekend were properly
weak.
Makes me want to contemplate a 200k in the future. However, will not
join a club just to do the one ride.
