Getting set for touring season! What are the first 5 things you take with you?

[Wolfman]

Alrighty folks, the weather is slowly on the turn, and those awesome Aussie spring days are not far away...the solstice aint far off, so the days wil be getting longer again...there's only one thing to do really, get out on our bikes and ride!

After having a very interrupted summer riding season last year, i am as keen as mustard to get out there amongst it this summer, and i bet i aint alone...

I have been getting myself organised, and in the process, i started to think, what 5 things will be the "first packed" on my adventures!

I came up with this lot!
1. Money!
2. Decent tool kit.
3. Phone....begrudgingly.
4. GPS, or Maps...i hate getting lost!
5. The right riding gear for all of the trip!

So, what would, or is everybody else's first packed????

:thumbup:

2. Chain Lube (I agree with ozzieboy, but will 'politify' it for Kazza )
3. Phone - 'Cause you just never know...
4. Soft rag and water bottle filled with Rainex - for getting the bugs off the visor and windscreen
5. All weather riding gear.

Well the bike as well. I'm more than happy to share with my bike...or anything else I might be lucky enough to ride while I'm away
