Also, the wheels are brand new, so I don't expect broken spokes. The multi tool does have open end wrenches, allen keys, spoke wrenches, and more, so it's pretty extensive for a small package. And a pedal wrench? I really don't know why I would need that at all. Enlighten me? And remember, this is only for three days and about 220 miles on a bike with freshly packed bearings, a headset with only a couple of hundred miles, and new wheels.

best thing you can do is go ride a few times with your rig and see what needs adjusting. I don't see the need for tools beyond allen wrenches or small multi-tool for a weeks worth of road riding. If the gear is a new package that's what you'll be readjusting/securing.
