Hmm.. bulky. I reckon stuffing the kit down the neck of my jersey is probably better. Since it's a 600 it's no great shakes stopping, folding it up and storing it more neatly in a spare pocket I guess. I could carry less food and buy more at each control. I finished the 400 with spare drink powder, spare bars and spare gels. I could just expand the saddle pack a little and that would leave a pocket free for arm/leg warmers.
Fair enough, I meant attaching it like you would a between-the-bars-bottle. I might try and stitch up a little prototype sometime, maybe there's a market for crossover between bikepacking and time trailing or triathlons...
Buying food rather than carrying it does seem to make sense.

That's great when there are places to buy food. Snowdonia doesn't really have a concept of 24 hour garages which makes for a long barren stretch on the BCM.
