• Lock: Since we'll be with the bike most of time, it really isn't necessary except for what is on the motorcycle such as the steering lock.
• Ear Plugs: These can be cheap and small, fitting into your pocket. Many hours of loud pipes and hammering wind is hard on your hearing. Also, it seems to give riders a bit more of a secure ride when noise levels are pushed down to a minimum.
• Water Bladder: People may not realize just how much water the body uses while driving a motorcycle, easily becoming dehydrated. One way to deal with this is the water bladder, which can be tucked away in a Cruiser Tank Bag or Saddle Bag.
• Spare Key: Never travel without a spare key somewhere on your person. It will not do you much good if your key gets broke or lost, if it's at home. Ask the rental shop for a spare. If you loose your key, and it happens, then what?
• Misc. Electronics: Camera & Batteries, Charger, SD Card: You may be able to plug a charger into your AUX power supply if you run dry during the trip.
• Tire Pump: We happen to to carry a Cycle Pump with tire plugs and accessories just in case of a fixable flat. Anyone on the tour would be welcomed to use it, if needed.
• Tow Strap: We've never had to use one but a tie-down-strap could be used as a method to tow in the case of an emergency.
• Maps: Each day, each participant will be given maps of our days intended journey.
• Tires: Make sure your bike isn't starting out with tires that are 1/2 wore out, not a good idea. By the time we get back you'll have them wore out completely from the twisties.
• Air Pressure: Just because you have a rental, check the air pressure.
• Communication: We use BlueAnt Interphone Bluetooth motorcycle communication devices, which unfortunately only work between 2 devices, you can however, use it for cell phones such as to call a guide... Here is a write-up on the devices if you'd like to have further information. They are only about $120 at Amazon. You can use it for dialing the cell phone but since the device can communicate with bike to bike communication up to about 500 meters, no cell phone usage is needed for the most part if you are paired up. If not, just call on the cell phone and we can pickup on the road.
• Sunglasses / Goggles: Helmets that come with rental motorcycles are open face style. You'll need eye protection, so be it glasses or sun glasses, or goggles you'll need eye protection - it is state law. There are kinds that work with helmets and wind and some that don't.

• Ear Plugs: Once again, most people would never think to bring a pair of ear plugs until you've hit the road for a few days and wonder what is happening to your hearing. The wind can be a source of hammering noise. These are small and fit in your pocket. Bring a couple pair since they seem to get lost easily.
• Water Bladder: People may not realize just how much water the body uses while driving a motorcycle, easily becoming dehydrated. One way to deal with this is the water bladder, which can be tucked away in a Cruiser Tank Bag or Saddle Bag.
• Spare Key: Never travel without a spare key somewhere on your person. It will not do you much good if your key gets broke or lost, if it's at home. Ask the rental shop for a spare. If you loose your key, and it happens, then what?
• Spare Leavers: This is a biggie: Just when you think you've got it down pat, the bike hits the pavement while doing a slow turn about in a parking lot. Or for some other unknown reason the motorcycle falls straight over to the pavement. Ok, what is likely to happen? Hopefully not more than than a clutch or brake leaver. In the unfortunate circumstance of braking this, you'll have the extra part instead of being out of business until a shop opens, IF there is one in the neighborhood. Since most of the rental bikes have engine protectors, you may not loose a foot peg. If you're riding your own bike and don't have an engine protector, give consideration to picking up spare leavers and pegs. - See safety.

• Misc. Electronics: Camera & Batteries, Charger, SD Card: You may be able to plug a charger into your AUX power supply if you run dry during the trip.
• Cable Lock: 6' cable of some sort that is strong enough to run it through your bikes at night.
• Tire Pump: We happen to to carry a Cycle Pump with tire plugs and accessories just in case of a fixable flat on a tubeless tire. Anyone on the tour would be welcomed to use it, if needed.
• Air Pressure: Just because you have a rental, check the air pressure each day.
