Looking to see what others carry.

Found myself in need of a flat head screwdriver on the weekend and that got me thinking about what else I'm missing.

Thankyou

Flat screwdriver, Cross head screwdriver, assorted allen keys, 8-14mm spanners, med crescent, long nose pliers, CRC, cable ties, elect tape, Tyre repair can & puncture repair kit, first aid kit, torch, pocket knife, spare cash - coins, circuit tester. Could be more, but that's off the top on me head on what's under the seat. 
On a long ride, wet weather gear there too.

And i guess the kitchen sink is handy when you Finnish a roed side repair  :imrgreen:

But seriously it is always handy to have a selection of tools and a way of mending a puncture .

I carry the visor cleaner & cloths in the bag on the back. easier to get at & don't have to repack the whole underneath.

That's the advantage of living on your little Island.

Wouldn't be much use on some of the rides we do out here.  I've done some real long sections without seeing anyone or having any phone reception.
