rydabent, IME it's mostly the rookie cyclists that aren't prepared. I started bringing the floor pump and a small tool kit for club rides as it seemed common that someone had underinflated tires or something mechanical amiss. There seemed a couple of folks that didn't 'get it' until their own problem.

I know riders that just stay in their neighborhood, I don't think they need repair items. The walk home may teach them to be prepared before the ride?
