ROTFLMAO.. Jonnie, you are a stitch! someday we'll have to ride together if we can figure out a way to shrink the miles between Texas and Kansas... hey, there's rides in Oklahoma!

 

Anyway, another option is a cantle bag with the water bottle holders in them. I have one of these on my English saddle. I can put everything I need in it and carry two bottles of water and it's fairly convenient to reach for stuff. I got mine from Sportack, but I think all the distance riding catalog folks have them. If I need to hang more stuff, I use the d-rings in front .
