Under saddle bags

[Grog]

I have found that if I carry a tube in the bag, it always eventually gets a hole in it (from rubbing in the bag I think against the zipper) so I never put my tubes in my bag. I carry those in my back pocket.

Good point. I forgot to mention that my "hardware" is in an old sock so they don't make a hole in the tube. Now that you talk about the risk that the zipper makes a hole in the tube, maybe I should the tube in the sock and the rest loose in the saddle bag...

The above list are pretty thorough. I carry a couple of medical type gloves and have my tube in one of them. That way, the tube is protected and if I have a rear flat or mechanical problem, you have the gloves.

But I've managed to get my pretty new tape dirty anyway.

Oh yeah...I forgot about that tube rubbing thing. Mine is wedged in there pretty good so I can't imagine it rubbing on anything, but just to be safe, it is wrapped in a piece of an old sheet (a sock was too thick!).
