  1. Great suggestions, all! I always have something sparkly (bracelets, bandannas, bedazzled vest). I carry sunscreen, a water bottle plus one in my beverage holder, and two chargers: one charger that plugs into the bike for my phone/iPod, and one USB charger that also plugs into the bike. I also carry a duffle bag that rolls up super small and extra bungees in case I need to shed my coat/leathers or shop on the way! I also recently found a small cast-iron hammer (6 inches long) that is now added to my Leatherman, zip ties, and electrical tape. I also carry a small first-aid kit.

  2. ATGATT including phone and my rosary.

  3. My phone to call for help. The one time that I didn’t, I learned to pick up a bike.

  4. I always make sure I have my charging cords for my phone. Want to be sure I am fully charged throughout a day of riding.

  5. Besides the ATGATT, my PACSAFE Slingsafe. Check them out — traveling girl’s must. It carries and protects everything I need. Including ChapStick, a must here in Phoenix.

  6. The one item I always have in my pocket (riding or not) is a Chapstick.

  7. I can’t be without my phone and Nano along with my helmet and glasses.

  8. Never go anywhere without my lipstick!

  9. Love the sarong suggestion. I have carried one before to use as a “changing room” in/out of leathers, but kind of forgot. Always a snack and water ad for me ATGATT goes without saying.
