We pop out the center pop-up valve and insert a plastic tube for drinking without removing the bottle. Can be done on pilot's or stoker's bar.
Zona, my LBS had a bunch of these clamps in their clearance bin so I got some very cheaply based on your suggestion.
I have been looking into ultralight bicycle touring lately and am thinking that in fact the Fuji would be fine even for a big tour with my son (in a few years time, he's only 3 now) if we had the right camping gear. No need for a drum brake (I am only 59kg, he will be scrawny like me) or front panniers. A larger handlebar bag for the pilot, a smaller one for the stoker, rear panniers and a frame bag for parts/tools would serve.
