Gone feral...
Ahh - just read this thread (no IT access at home, so have to sneak it into playtime etc). I really used to love Ouma's Rusks as a kid - I'd never of thought of them as trail food, but they would be perfect - would have to carry a big stash, cos the'd go very quick!

Try and find an old SA cookbook called 'Ouma's' - lots of 'bushie' recipes - much loved by my ouma, and my dad, esp for braais in the bushveld...

If by 'travelbread' you mean 'something I can use as bread that will survive the journey', I also tend to use pittas.

I don't tend to use biscuits because they are too small to make a decent bacon sarnie, and tend to come out of the pack as crumbs. Crispbreads etc are no good for mopping your bowl after the camp stew so I tend to use bread.

Loaves tend to end up squished, and are rather bulky at the best of times anyway.

If I have the space, and it's only a few days I pack a bunch of bread rolls.
Failing, that I use pitta because I simply havn't found anything else as versitile.
