Survey, well sort of...

When you go riding what do you take with you..?

Do you have frame/seat bag or full on hydration backpack..?

I'm curious what people take in said bags...What you carry etc first aid, spares, tools, food, clothes..?

Post up what you take.

Will be interesting to see what you all carry..

Camelbak Mini Mule with spare tube, tyre levers, pump and Allen keys and lights.

Tesco hydration bag (£10)
multitool
phone
spare tube pump and levers, even though im tubeless
first aid kit and wetwipes (dont ask)

Camelback havoc with everything for big days out. As below plus first aid kit etc
Camelback rogue for Xc race and little loops with tube,multi tool,sram magic link pump, possibly shock pump.

Good idea, i will add a magic link, and yes i take a shock pump too

Allen Keys and Gas pump in small bladder backpack, maybe a few other extras if Im going further afield.

Camel back mule with 2 inner tubes, 3 tyre levers, patches (just in case), Multi tool, chain breaker, 2 magic links, glass wipes, pump, small zip tires, surgons gloves (for when its muddy and don't want your riding gloves or hands covered in s**t), wind stopper, hangers, Gels & mult loaf (only really used on Wales trips or all day epics). Over the top may be but my theory is you can't rely on some one else on having the said spare if you don't think it's worth having yourself.

Ive started doinga few solo rides where im know im no more than 45 mins walk from home / the car with - nothing - feels great but id only recomend it ocasionally

Normally 1 litre water, tube, patches, pump and multitool plus small 'magic' bag of bits - frame hanger, powerlinks, chainset bolts etc.

Last night i rode without my bag, first time in ages, i forgot things and i wanted to take waterproof off

All the usually stuff, camelbak mule usually with 1.5 ltrs of drink unless its a big ride, tube, patches, tyre levers, pump, multitool that has chain tool, chain links, first aid kit.

Well I see most people carry all the good stuff,
But I got a tip once off an American from another forum.
He said if you carry a pump wrap some duck tape around the handle, it don't weigh anything but can save you and it can be used for so many things..!!



I also think one of the most important things is first aid kit ( hopefully never to be used ) but that's just me..

Sorry if this is a repost, but I'm new here..lol
I'm now also reading the old post.
