Feedbag

Nice little pouch. It could fit. A 16oz water bottle or trail snacks. It attaches to my Gregory Focal 58 shoulder strap and is identical to the fabric and nearly identical color pallet. I really like the Gossamer Gear accessories. Will be looking at their packs when I replace one of my packs.

I will update my review as needed after I spend some time on trail with this. When long distance bikepacking or hiking, it is critical to keep constantly fueled with easily accessible snacks. It is just too easy to keep riding or hiking and not stop for sufficient calorie or water intake. So immediate access to water and food needs to be planned smartly. I often wear my hydration bag while biking, because it is also hi-viz and reflective and part of my safety strategy as well as hydration strategy. Hanging this feedbag on the strap will likewise help to ensure that I consistently intake calories from my trail mix gorp. I have been using one of my handlebar water bottle holders, but I am going to give this a try instead. And this can go with me when I choose to go on a hike or explore a town.

You don't have to reserve this for snacks. It also holds a small water bottle, or my compact binoculars, GPS, compass, and paper maps (I like to mix in a little retro). It would have been nice to have printed or video instructions on how to affix it to the shoulder strap though. Maybe next time? But I figured something out that seems to work.
