That sounds reasonable. I've heard that glycogen is stored in proximity to muscle for fuel, and if you do a lot of work (e.g. a long walk) any available glycogen is used to replenish those stores. That is, the only time it's reasonable to gorge on carbs (which in practice always means some fructose) is when you've somewhat depleted your muscle glycogen.
