What's in your bag?

[ScaldedCat]

I have an Altura Fusion day pack on my Bob Jackson and in it are,

2 spare inner tubes
Park glueless patches
tacx tyre levers
Topeak Mini9 multi tool
Park mini-chain brute chain tool
I pair of surgical gloves
SKS mini-pump
1 dustbin liner ( for putting on the ground under bars and seat if I need to turn the bike upside down to fix p*ncture while on a ride).
Hi-viz cycling waterproof jacket
a few wet-wipes in a poly-bag for hand cleaning

My iphone would also be in the bag while I'm out on a ride but obviously doesn't live there all the time.

In the bag on the top tube: pocket pack of tissues, cell phone (in plastic bag, in case of rain), inhaler, maybe some gu, yellow lenses for sunglasses if sunset is possible during ride.

In seat wedge: stuff to repair flat tire, mini-tool, band-aids in various sizes, teeny bottle of hand sanitizer, keys, jimi wallet with ID etc., and a tampon.

I have a very small saddle bag on my road bike that contains:
1 or 2 spare tubes (depending)
tire levers
hex wrench thing for quick adjustments
latex gloves
Action Wipes

I have the larger-sized Topeak wedge bags, the one that's expandable, since I'm one of those people who feels the need to carry everything but the kitchen sink with them. In it, I have:

-2 spare tubes
-a tampon
-CO2 inflator plus two cartridges
-A power gel, in case I run out or forget my Clif blocks.
-Alien XS multitool with chain tool
-tire levers
-tiny notebook (the pencil has disappeared)
-a few doses of benadryl
-a couple bandaids.

I really want a tiny comprehensive first aid kit, or at least condiment-type packages of antiseptic ointment and the like. Any suggestions?

I'm going to start carrying around a headless doll just in case someone ever stops me to ask that.

I'm going to start carrying around a headless doll just in case someone ever stops me to ask that.

If you are going to carry the doll body headless in your bag... may I have the head itself to carry in mine after you rip it off?

Though, I hope it's a Barbie Doll because my Krieg bag wouldn't hold something bigger.

Hmm, something weird in the bag... well, Krieg bags themselves are unusual...

I got notta outta the ordinary atm:
1tube, tire levers, 1CO2 w/strips of cut duct tape on cartridge, mini CO2 inflate head, Ziplock snack baggie w/2Advil, few crisp dollar bills, house key, and cell phone usually can get jammed in the Kreig bag last thing... asthma inhailer & Cliff Shot Blocks + Lara bars in jersey pockets.

OH... and I will have a Barbie Doll head when Zen gives that up.

I think if I tie the Barbie Doll hair to the blinky light strip on the back of the Krieg bag, it will all fit then... yea, that's my plan... cool, I'm set.

I'm hitting the dollar store asap

Owlie yo kill me. I'm always concerned of the bike shop guy finding my tampon.
I have an expandable bag which has
spare tube
tyre levers
granola bag
fortified jelly beans, yes electrolytes and all
my cell and $$

Owlie yo kill me. I'm always concerned of the bike shop guy finding my tampon.

Guys know by now that women use tampons.

[Owlie]

Unless it's like the 15-year-old kid the LBS at home employs, largely for sales but they're teaching him some of the mechanical stuff too. In which case, well, he needs to learn this stuff anyway. No one ever died of embarrassment. (And if I take my bike to the shop, the bag comes off anyway.)

Guys know by now that women use tampons.

I'd rather have some guy at the LBS find my tampon than be caught without when I need it.

And since they have no need to look in my seat bag, it serves them right if they snoop around and find something that freaks them out. Which is another reason to pack that headless doll..

fortified jelly beans, yes electrolytes and all

Jelly Belly Sport Beans?

I love the fruit punch ones, but I can't find them here anymore. They also turned my tongue a crazy bright pink color!

Owlie,
I think you must have been looking in my bag when you wrote this list! I also have a couple bucks and a small tube of sunscreen.
