I plan to take a toothbrush, evening clothes (shoes light trackie bottom and top) plus 2 tubes and mini pump.
My problem is: what is the best way to carry this small load.
We are competitive guys and plan to push the pace on good carbon fibre bikes so therefore want something that won't drag us down or damage the bikes.

Any help appreciated...

Thanks
With that little gear you can use a Carradice Barley and a handlebar bag, or just get a couple of compression sacks and strap them onto the saddle and the handlebars
