Those are good additions!One latex rubber glove - don't like getting grease on my hands
Reading glasses make repairs much more easy when I can see what I'm doing

Have you used all of these?
I've done this twice, but just with dollar bill, no straw. Worked really well, both times.Used most things. Never got the dollar bill and straw to pack out a torn sidewall trick down. Just bulges too much.
- Voile strap holding tool roll under my seat and when SHTF
- Rubber band squeezing tool roll tighter.
The last two helps a lot when self splinting a broken thumb with spare tube (pocket knife) when you lowside in the drops around a corner and still need to ride 10 miles because your phone screen is smashed. Side note, the ER Doc told me you can normally still use voice commands to make a phone call.
Went for a group ride last night (I HATE group rides...) and the group had one mechanical and one flat. Of the 14 or so riders, no one was carrying a multi tool (loose stem bolts on one bike, hey what's the worst that could happen?) or a pump/ CO2. Also, of the 14 riders, 5 or 6 are current or former bike mechanics. My excuse was I was running a water bottle for the short ride because I left my Camelbak on the counter as I rushed out of the house while trying to keep the dog in the house. In the Camelbak is a multi tool, CO2 and sealant.
