[RC] Carrying weight - Michael Maul

As far as carrying "stuff" to meet weight - I personally only carry things that I've found useful to me in my 5K AERC miles or things people riding with me have needed.

I usually carry 2 easyboots, tools like needlenose pliers, screwdriver, knife, spare clips and buckles, light leadline, light raincoat, some emergency medical stuff, vet wrap, electrolytes and syringe.

Yes - I know a multipurpose tool has most of these but I always have trouble getting it open and once open - closed.

This is not a lot of extra weight but my weight ends up whatever this adds up to with my tack.

Mike
