End of the bike trip: This is the supplies I sent home along with the bike. Pro tip: you do not need four front lights nor three spare pairs of brake pads (I didn't use even one) nor locking pliers. Nor did I need my spare bike lock key nor any of my spare spokes, though I think those are prudent carries. (Maybe just one or two spokes, though.)

The most important repair supplies here, besides normal patch kit stuff, are the sleeping bag tag in the lower left — it makes an excellent tire "boot" — and the hose clamps.
