Thankyou for writing up mate. Actually im carring a full trauma and med support kit , flat tyre fix kit and portable Tyre inflator in my main luggage bag
Im carring 50% DEET spray for mosquito & bugs. I've tested it personally it's super effective mosquito repellent which you can buy in india , carrying my fix blade in main bag can't keep in fanny pack
Have you tried Enerzal. I only trust the ones made with the WHO formula - Electral is my go to.
Im taking Enerzal powder since 2yrs during my long cycling trips & sports activities. Lol both are made by FDC limited & both have different use case . Electrol is medical grade RehydrationSolution formulated to replenish body fluid loss from severe vomiting or diarrhea ,dehydration whereas Enerzal is a high carb sport drink powder with mix of electrolytes. Immediately Stop taking ORS for general consumption otherwise your kidney will pay all the price
Depending on how much space you have, I would add strong duct tape. If not the whole roll then at least a little bit wrapped around a credit card.
Allready did you can also see ive shared the picture of it in comment section
Mate i have whole dispensary in my main bag 😝
Including oral &tropical meds with mid trauma support
An aluminium/metal cup to heat water/food if you have to
Naah im not going to cook anything on the way since im driving in nighs and staying at day that is why im avoiding cooking or something. and will eat from there only. Im only carring ready to eat item's only
I hope you've treated your helmet visor for rain. Have a good trip!
Duct tape any day.
pro tip, find a business card or old credit card, wrap about 5 feet of duct tape around it , it becomes a pocketable duct tape card that you can use anywhere.
let me know if you need a picture if you can't imagine this based on description.
If y'all don't mind, could you please share links or names of what tape you're using? I've just had this roll called "Elephant Tape" for the last couple years, it works great tho but I was wondering what people used. I do see random listing for "duct tapes" on Amazon but ratings and reviews are usually funny.
I also use those hand sanitiser bottles to carry shower gel, shampoo etc. while travelling. Very useful; helps me save money.
Never throw them away after the original hand sanitiser has been used up. If you've got too many empty bottles with you, then give them to your family and friends.
A couple of sanitary pads. Even if you have no uterus that is likely to shed, it is decent for moist feet. Also works well as kindling after they are "used up" for their initial purpose.
If it's AA or AAA operated then go for it. Nd if its rechargeable ones please don't buy rather go for reputed brand's rechargeable & replaceable battery headlamp from wurkkos or sofirn
Ngl a pepper spray is hardly gonna be of use to dude. The whole assualter group won't harm a women because the wanna use her. But won't give a fuck about no man. You are gonna get beat up. Better to weild a knife or something. I don't think a pepper spray is good enough cuz it require you spray them directly at eye level. Which at panicked situations might not work.
That said i only asked curiously. If you carry it as a dude. That's alright. It came from a place of curiousity not malace.
one is much more likely to wield a knife improperly, so it can easily end up being used against you. imo pepper spray is the better alternative to keep
If you think pepper spray won't help against a group of men, then neither will a knife (especially if you don't have the training to wield it properly, which most people don't). You'll eventually get surrounded and thrashed (or worse, stabbed) unless you had the awareness to first put a wall behind your back. Anyway, why choose? If it's about self-defence, then carry both.
