It is pretty straight forward for me, the bicycle is ready and sitting against the book case after the last ride, I wear a RoadID all the time, putting on my kit (deal with what I call it, please) takes me around 2 minutes, I grab my wallet and phone and slip them into plastic ziploc bags and put them in my jersey pockets, grab my helmet and gloves and fill a water bottle. I do the usual ABC check of the bicycle (air pressure, brake action and QR setting, check the chain's cleanliness and lubrication) and I am out the door. Usually takes me around 5-7 minutes from the time I decide its right for a ride and am gone. I do a thorough check and any maintenance after each ride when I get home. Its worked well for me so its going to keep getting done this way. No GPS or high end computer for me, I have a simple wireless C'Dale unit for mileage and elapsed time and its easy and straight forward,(or I couldn't use it to save my life.) There isn't any thing to do as far as it is concerned.
