I'm really enjoying reading this thread. I have gotten some great ideas for things to add to my kit.
I'm astonished by how much stuff people carry on bike rides, even short ones. Back in my racing/minimalist days I'd go out for a 100 mile ride with a tube, tire levers, Ritchey CPR tool, spoke wrench in a tiny seat pouch and a $10 bill. My friend Doug has done brevets- without the tool and spoke wrench- and nothing added.
Bikes are pretty reliable with a basic maintenance schedule. I almost never have to fix anything other than a puncture on my bikes during a ride but have stopped to fix problems with other bikes (broken chains, in particular).
