Two of my touring bikes do not have spoke holders on the frame. I carry the spare spokes in the seatpost. They are held in with a wine cork. The cork dried out and shrunk slightly so I wrapped some electrical tape around it to make the cork fit tighter in the seatpost.
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.

That's weird. So does it also censor the word "crackers" if you want to mention that peanut butter crackers are a light and space-efficient meal solution when touring that don't require any cooking?
