I carried way too much last time. My pockets were jammed with stuff.
I bring heed as well.
Plus a couple energy bars and gels in case I goof up or can not stand their food.

During the first descent I was shivering to the point I was having issues riding in a straight line.
Anyhow, my clothing choices wont be made up until the last moment. I tend to throw everything into my van and then pick and choose when heading out.
Last year I wore leg and arm warmers, a PI jacket, long finger and short finger gloves, skull cap, jersey, shorts, socks, and shoes.


I am still thinking about using my messenger bag. I have used it on centuries before. With only clothes in it I usually forget it is there. Yay bailey works!
