Just to be clear, I thought that a dummy wallet was already a pretty high level of over thinking "the worries of the road". My comment was only intended as food for thought for those who are already worrying too much. My recommendation is to not worry about it at all beyond whatever normal precautions you would take at home. I figure that, where I tour at least, the risk is quite low. I also figure that the amount of money I carry and the cards I carry constitute a minimal and acceptable risk of loss. I bet a pretty high percentage of us live, work, or play in a more dangerous place than where we tour. The rural and small town roads of the US are probably lower risk than home for many or even most of us.
