Funny, I just baked a loaf overnight and put it away this morning. They say the breadmaker is a prime candidate for most people to ditch to save counter space, but I use it weekly year round.
Anyway, I commute on a 20 inch cruiser and take groceries in for breakfast and lunch at the office. Large backpack, I'm only going 3 miles. I have it down to a science, the clerks watch me pack that thing to the gills and I buy the exact amount that will fit every time. Weight is not the issue, it is space and how crush-able the items are. Bread is non-starter, so tortillas are substituted. Bags of chips are too much wasted space, so Pringles it is, or pretzel rods. You get the idea.
