I wouldn't listen to any of the posts where they say don't take food! If you're going for anymore than an hour you'll want to take something with you.
I never used o eat on the bike, but was amazed the difference it makes if you eat every 30-45 minutes or so.

The first event will be.... *drum roll*.... a tickling challenge followed by yoga.
*feels sure this is in the bag to me, as i'm not ticklish and have been a yogi for years*
*Is so greatful the challenges aren't running simultaneously*
This all sounds a bit too much like fun though...
Haha, that first sentence nearly made me spit my biscuit over my keyboard 😆
I'm just lulling you into a false sense of security. Its all about the tactics innit?
Lezyne Micro Caddy carries my levers and spare tube, absolutely no rattling around.
Room in there for a multi-tool too though I rarely take one - most likely 'mechanical' will be a puncture, no need for a tool there.
Everything else in jersey pockets - key to the garage, phone, cash, card, flapjacks, inhaler, co2 canisters & inflater. Perhaps an extra tube if I think about it.
I don't keep my drink in my pockets obviously, it's in the bottle in a carbon cage 😉
Going to add a chain tool to my kit list, was out last Sunday after breaking my mtb chain the week before and got The Fear .. was mincing around for the last 15 miles.
I find patches hopeless on 700c tubes, but as said they are so light you might as well pack them.
Topeak RoadMorph for pump duties - works but is a bit bulky.. just about OK in a jersey pump pocket.
BTW, Buzz Bars - little energy bars I found in Waitrose, 3 for £2.50 and absolutely lush.. sort of fudgy nutty fruity thing. Only problem is that they are very high calorie for something so tasty and I keep eating them whilst fettling.
