What do you carry with you on ride/Whats in your Camelbak?(merged)

Nope but I have been known to trade the $20 for a few beers and a $10 :beer:

 

Well, truth be told, that's all I can remember off the top of my head. I also carry 3 Powerbars and 5 Gu packets. Lunch and snacks for the longer rides. A digital camera, my cell phone and ID/Insurance cards.

:-k I'm sure there are other odds and ends I can't remember off hand.

I'll have to check and weigh my pack when I get home. With 2L of water I think it weighs in the neighborhood of ~25lbs.

 

Pato - Is it still 25 pounds with the female masseuse? Next time I'll be looking for the lunch. Peanut Butter sandwich will be okay.

:-k Definitely there's more in that pack.

 

when i went to wash my camelbak my girlfriend said I didn't need it, I should just bring a water bottle and borrow parts if I needed them on the trail.



doesn't quite work that way. So I carry the basics plus some

 

I wish I had an extra front triangle when I cracked my frame last time. Dont forget to take an extra frame with you guys!

 

Good thing there's no Deezees in Chowda Town, or else I'd have lay the smack down.

 

how much smack could you fit in your pack if your smack pack could pack smack.

I'm on my way to Chowdaville on Saturday & then down to R.I. for the real chowdaaaa.:beer:

 

Great suggestions but no one has mentioned one essential part I carry...usually.

An extra cleat bolt!

Once you lose one on a ride you'll carry a spare from then on too!

 

I certainly can't compete with you all.

1. Spare Tubes (mine and Julia's)
2. Tool
3. Chain link tool
4. Extra chain links (mine and Julia's)
5. Patch kits (never know)
6. Pain med for (me)
7. First aid kit for (Julia) cute bandaids
8. Rag for (not sure why)
9. Cell Phone
10. Food, Gu, Shot Blocks,
11. Most important CANDY
12. Pepper spray
13. Extra Rubber Bands (for hair)
14. Suncreen, Chapstick

I'll have to remember the ID and med cards.

Happy Riding!

Lots of good suggestions. Thanks for your advice (and funny comments). Sounds like i am off to the bike shop for a few more things in the bag....

 

Some people say I carry a sleeping bag and kitchen sink!

 

Without listed everything, I try to carry everything i'd need to get back from a ride safely and without walking. I carry more on some rides than others. The more remote it is, the more I carry (and remote rides are my favorites). I try to have everything i'd need to survive a night on the trail: water, food, light, first aid kit, tools/tubes, few extra parts, windbreaker, emergency blanket, cell phone, matches, knife.

 

bladder
multi tool
metal dh tire levers
mini pump
shock pump
zip ties
duct tape
tire boot
spare tube
patch kit
small section of chain
link savers and chain pins
pretty decent first aid kit stripped down to essentials
space blanket
bandanna
elbow pads
knee pads
goggles
full face helmet

all strapped in for the climb to the top

 

I thought I was the only one who lost a cleat bolt. Good to know I'm in good company.

Duct tape works good on cactus needles too! Especially the small ones you can barely see.
