Just like is says in that famous motto of the Boy Scouts, you should always be prepared. There is nothing worse than being on your bike, miles from home, and have something go wrong on your bike…and you don’t have any tools to fix it. You need to be prepared for all kinds of situations that could possibly happen out on your ride.
