I carry a mini pump, 2 tubes, tire irons, small leatherman multi tool, wallet, watch, u-lock, and keys (all fit in my bag)

In the summer if I am rolling to the beach at Coney Island, I pull a fixed gear trailer behind my bike with snacks, beer and condoms. I built the trailer myself with Columbus tubing and 12 inch wheels on white deep v rims. With my welding skills, I modified some Phil Woods hubs I had laying around. I threw some extra silver cogs on the hubs for some "bling" as I roll down the boardwalk on my way to play "Shoot the Freak" In case my bike gets jacked, I carry a 650 disk wheel to pop on the front of my trailer so I can use it like a scooter to get myself home. The trailer affords me the chance to carry multiple outfits with me in case I want to change my look while on the ride. I highly suggest everyone get into the crazy world of building your own fixed gear bike trailer. You will not be disappointed!
