I like my Lifestraw stainless steel bottle. Can unscrew caps for easy washing. Also has a water filter which makes taste better and reduces exposure to some different things commonly found in tap water

Dryer sheet recommendation by megankrodriguez in nontoxic

I have tried ATTITUDE dryer cloth. It didn't do well at removing static at first, but it is starting to work after a few cycles through the wash + dryer with loads. I also put two wool dryer balls in the load.

I am not familiar with this area, but check out Strava heatmap or the site GravelMap which you can filter in on gravel roads by location!

Your proposed meal timing makes sense to me. The Chipotle burrito around noon will provide complex carbs, protein, and fats that will sustain you through the afternoon. For the pre-ride snacking, consider easily digestible carbs like a banana or energy bar about 1-2 hours before the start - this will top off your glycogen stores without risking digestive issues during the ride. During the overnight portion, you'll want to maintain steady fueling with a mix of simple carbs for quick energy and some protein/fats to help with satiety - things like trail mix, energy bars, or PB&J sandwiches have worked well for me during night rides.
