what do you take with you when out on the trails? i'm talking about anything from maps to tools really. i've got a decent size bag that fits a hydration pack and there's plenty room for other stuff. i'm pretty sure that i take too much stuff with me though and would like to just take essentials so list away!

Depends on the ride, but for an 'epic':

  • Food
  • Water
  • Spare inner tube
  • puncture repair kit
  • minimal bandages
  • Small amount of toilet roll (when you gotta go!)
  • Multi-tool
  • Pump
  • Spare gloves if winter


That sounds a lot, but it really isn't that much when all compacted down etc.

Hydration pack
Multi Tool
Tyre levers
Patch kit
1x inner tube
Pump

Only need food if your doing more than a couple hours. If you racing Torq gels are good.
