Under the seast--bike cover, cable, locks. These always stay in there for any trip.
In the seat bag--towel, work shoes, purse.
In the purse, everything a woman needs for throughout the day. ;D
On the grocery hook--the Lunchbox of Amazing Copiousness.
On me--ATGATT. Work uniform underneath. Microfiber cloth in a pocket. Garage opener.
I always watch the weather report before leaving, so I know if it'll get colder and I need my jacket and pants liners. But typically it gets warmer instead. So going home my bag will gain the quilted &/or windbreaker liners.
*****
When I go out practising, I typically leave the purse and just pocket the cell phone and my little pouch with DL, ccard, and a twenty.

I have a couple of screw drivers, bungee cords, metric allen wrenches and water. I don't get out on the highway with it so I can walk home or call if I break down. I'll have to revise my tool list when I get a bigger scoot since I'll be taking some longer trips further from home.

i seen one ina a can that sprays in sealant and fills ur tire up at the same time, bout the size of a can of food. im gettin it asap It's called tyre weld, there's various makes. They're all crap. You have to totally empty the tyre, remove the object if possible, spray it in, then ride for about 10 miles on a flat tyre to work it in, before inflating properly. And even then you have to get it to a garage ASAP to have it done properly. It's ok for cars, but trying to ride on a flat is suicide. You're much better off using a "slime" product (stans, green, etc) that you put in before you get a puncture and they try and save you, or getting a proper tubeless repair kit, like I mentioned above.

Nothing but my keys, goggles, gloves, and wallet.
If it's really a long one, perhaps a bottle of drink.
I've never had longer rides than 6 hours, in which I covered over 200 miles.

Ian Once you get slimed you will not want to use it again. Makes tire changes afterwards a real mess. I would be more tempted to get Rhino treatment applied to the tire before installing instead. Sprayed on evenly inside the tire casing before mounting it and becomes semi-tacky without running all over the place. |

It's why I started using the tubeless kit, which I know works (it's not far off the "pro" kit used by my garage for permanent repairs). But I've not heard of that Rhino stuff. Is it good? I might have to ask about it next time I get a new tyre if it's a worth while investment. I can still keep the repair kit in the bucket for ones that are slightly too big for a treatment to save.
