Car vs Bike camping

With a trailer I bring a cooler, and food for 4 to 5 days. The biggest difference when I have the cooler is I bring some fruit, coffee creamer, cheese sticks, and maybe one meals worth of "cold" food.

If I camp without the trailer I typically do 2-3 days of food and plan to go to a grocery store. (buy cold/fresh stuff for that night and a few things for the next few days) No cold stuff. I make coffee in the am (powder creamer) and have oatmeal, lunch is a Cliff bar and snacks while out on the road, dinner a Kohr pasta, gourmet mac and cheese (has the cheese packet no milk needed), soup, chili or another dry/canned meal. Some people use the freeze dried backpacking meals too. I normally only drink water from my water jug setup or have a few packets of electrolytes to add to a water bottle if its been hot.

I would be happy to share my setup at Rockies Gold. I will be at the KOA.
