The above are all great suggestions, at least the ones I read. Whenever I ride a bike outside, I have with me 2 tubes, a patch kit, boot kit, and a spare tire. I always use folding tires. If I flat, I change both the tube and tire. That saves time and frustration. I worry about why later, in camp or at home. It's quite a bit quicker to do that than to try to find the cause on the road. The patch and boot kit are belt and suspenders. I have used them.
I don't use CO2, Road Morph G only.
