It is better to have it, and not need it, than need it, and not have it.
Q. What should I carry while cycling? A. Here are some items that most cyclist keep in their under-seat bag.
• Pump
• Multi tool
• Patch kit (Glueless)
• Presta to Schrader
adaptor (This adaptor (about $.99) is necessary to inflate your tire
with a standard Schrader pump, like at a gas-station)
• Tire levers (to remove your tire from the rim)
• Cash (just in case, I leave $20 in fives in my under-seat bag)
• Identification (I wear an army style dog tag that goes around my neck - that way there is no need to carry my wallet)
• Cell phone (if you get a old cell phone and charger without a service plan, you can still call 911)
• Sunglasses (it is very important to have eye protection while cycling) |
