^^LOL

While mentioned, 99% of the time I ride with a Camelback + extra storage. Lots of excess golden crap. I carry both spare tubular and tubes, you name it tools and sometimes an ugly heavy steel 6" adjustable Crescent wrench. I've done many repairs for others out on the trail and roads. I can understand the newbie in Springtime out on his non-'broken' in new bike and or is unprepared for jammed / jumping chains, flats or worse.

I've seen lots of situations but the worse is when they're bonking. Yes... bonking. Poor dude is gagging for his last and or gut wrenched. But, hey, that's why I carry spare energy or nut bars! But where I draw the line is when they run out of water. They'll guzzle two or three bottles or totally forget to fill before heading out. I'm not sharing my Camelback nipple with anyone
