As for the stuff, lemme see: Park mt-1 tool, tube, and patch kit. Spare batteries for lights (which I still need to get). Food, I'm a big boy and it shows. Place to put clothes, either put-on's or take-off's. Raingear...may or maynot ride in it, but you never know, ya know? Little sports wallet that has debit card, DL, student ID, and bus pass, with just a little $ in it. Keys (housekey on ring attached to wallet). Key to cable lock (that stays with the bike) and for a U-lock that I can leave at work.

As for the commute- I live/work within 2 blocks of both points. Currently carpool with wife, who drops me off at midtown bus station. I take a bus to downtown, then another on to point B. Bus info here.

Road construction of I 44 will start soon. When it does, my wife won't deal with it. Instead, she'll take the Creek Turnpike from 44 to US 169 (it's the one that passes by Jenks on the map...the one one highway that is not marked), then OK 51 E until her exit. Leaving me scrambling to find an alternate route. Idea I have is for her to drop me off just E of the Arkansas River in Jenks. Trailhead to the Rivertrail system is located at the end of the off/on ramp. Could take that MUP all the way into downtown, or hook up with a couple of different bus routes at various points along the way. Alternatively, I may look into hooking into the local transit system from her exit, but I'll prolly still need the bike. I got a feeling the timimg points are too wonky for me to get to work on time if I just waited on the bus out there.
