What to Bring On Your Rides? Enduro and Offroad Riding

Спорт

People often ask me what to bring with them in their back packs on rides. Much of that will depend on how long you are going to be gone. This video shows the main things that I bring with me on my average ride. Feel free to add any other important things in the comments.

    The worst is when you go riding and someone expects you to have the tools for their bike and parts. They breakdown and ask if I have an 11mm or something odd and I only carry what my bike requires. People need to watch your video and ride prepared. Good video as always.

    As an off-road enthusiast, you should not be using Camelbak products. Camelbak supports groups like the Sierra Club which actively works to close public land to motorized use. Throw that backpack in the trash and buy something from Klim or other off-road supporting company that fights to keep trails open.

    Ah man really?!? Thats sucks, i ride in California with all the red and green sticker bullshit. The number of trails are sparse around here already. We don't need people closing down trails, a few dirt bikes riding around isn't going to destroy the planet. But of coarse nobody is worrying about big company's bellowing out gallons of toxic shit into our atmosphere every second. :)

    +Kyle Riggs Guess what...every time you register your bike, you are paying the people that shut down trails too... doesn't mean you don't register your bike. I see your point though. I got a good deal on a great pack and bought it. Certainly not going to throw it in the trash, but I do see your point.

    I always carry a couple of $5 or $10 bills for whatever... emergency gas money, oil or just be nice to someone who tows me back to the truck if needed. Make good to those who help you in need. Another thing I have had to use at least once was a tow strap that can be used to lower a bike over a ledge (long enough). If you ride in the mountains and like to be off the beaten path, you can get in trouble where you can't get back up the hill for whatever reason. I have indeed belayed two bikes over a 25ft "rock band" which allowed us to keep going down a gully until we found an actual trail again. This is an exception of course but it is something to think about when you choose your tow strap. If it's short, make sure your buddy carries one too. It doesn't have to be climbing rope or whatever, just a strap will do. I have ridden with people who hate to carry stuff. In the real world of trail riding, that can spell trouble if everyone "travels light". Be prepared and most importantly, take care of your bike and don' t just show up for the annual trail ride with a bike you haven't looked at since last year when it broke down. I've met plenty of those on my rides...

    I do a lot of solo riding and carry a spot personal gps tracker to send for help if I need to. You can set them up to send for help from friends/family, and you can always press the SOS button to send for emergency services if you really mess up. Handy since there is no cell service in most of the places I ride, 4x4, hunt and fish, etc. I also keep a trace device mounted in my airbox so I can find the bike if it "goes missing" out of the back of my truck.

    thanks for the vid. What I have started to do is to take some of the weight off me & onto the bike. Tools & essentials that I use or take on every ride go into a little pack secured to my rear fender. It makes a huge difference letting the bike carry some of the load. one of the 'essential' items in my bike pack is JB weld (or weld putty)... has saved us on rides numerous times. other useful items (that weren't mentioned) I always carry include: spare master link & mini chain press; weatherman or decent multi tool; tow strap; spare shifter; safety wire & pliers; some cash & medical insurance card. What we used to do in our riding group when I lived in South Africa, was have little decals made with our name, blood type, & emergency contact numbers on....we used to stick them on our helmets. cheers

Water purification tablets or a water filter would be critical in the desert. Also an ace bandage for a broken hand, torn acl, etc is important. I bring a slightly bigger pack to carry a fleece or water proof garment. If you have to stay the night it gets very cold. Even in the desert. Especially in the mountains. Your videos are awesome.

Absolutely the scariest thing to have clear visibility from a good headlight to absolutely nothing. Also a flashlight of some sorts ofcourse)

    Don't know what's in your med kit now but one good source of advice is KZread paramedics. The best advice I got is lots of tape and pads, because you're not going to be breaking into the kit for bumps and scrapes, when you go into the kit is usually for something very serious only to find that what's supplied won't do the job. That's not when you want to find out. Tape and pads, and for crush and break injuries be willing to sacrifice your jerseys for slings.

The bear here are use to loud dirtbikes and quads. Some stand in the dead center of the trail, look at you and go on about their way. ALWAYS carry candy or something high in sugar. My in laws blood sugar drops sometimes and a star burst or piece of chocolate under the tongue will balance things out for a little when we're a few miles in.

    Here in CA BCM rifles are not on the roster for legal weapons to purchase. We can only buy Uppers and parts from them. Good ole CA keeping us safe from ourselves, gotta love it... Another reason I love UT and ID, you can CCW, buy supressers, SBRs...pretty much anything. Take care

    Hi when I was riding 30 years ago I always had a spare chain link stored on my clutch cable also the lever you had as spare has the ball smashed off, Please don't make the mistake I made after changing a broken lever to my spare with ball missing I landed on it, it penetrated my chest protector and punctured my left lung it made a difficult ride to hospital

    One note on ibprofen. It is a vasodilator. Meaning that it thins the blood. It might be good for swellings but there is no guarantees you won't have anything more serious in the rest of the trip and if you were to have something more serious like internal bleeding, last thing you want is a vasodilator. If we are talking about the worst of the worst, it might make the difference between like and death. You should ask your pharmacist or your doctor which painkiller is best for your first aid needs.

    Contrary to the keypad warriors! You did a good job! If u maintain yr bike u don't need "anything" but that is usually not the case! KTM has a great emergency kit, 1 of the best in the industry (I have had 6 bikes of all flavours!) U supplemented it very well! 1st Meeting the biological needs of the rider (light weight food and water) and then 2nd the mechanical needs of the bike is the priority? Everyone has their own ideas on what u should carry. Get on KZread, and learn what u r comfortable with? I tend to carry a lot of gear to help other people (& bikes) I ride with. I am old and don't ride aggressively, but I can keep up with all the young people! Plus they r more than happy when I ride up when the chips r down (bikes r broke or injuries have happened). I digress, good job.

    Is nobody here a Boy Scout? A paper map and compass are essentials for me. They don't require batteries and always work in a pinch. In regards to fire you can also stuff a grip of dryer lint into a ziplock with your lighter to start a fire. It weighs nothing and compresses flat and burns like mad.

    If you use the ARC Memlon Composite unbreakable levers there is no need to ever carry extra levers in your pack. They are made out of a bendable composite material and will bend instead of break like metal levers. If you crash and bend them you can easily bend them right back into place and keep going. I have had some nasty wrecks on mine over the years and I just bend them back into place. They are expensive but, they will be the last levers you will ever buy. They are used by tons of MX and almost all Endurocross pros. Also, they use a different leverage point so they are buttery smooth to pull.

    Cotton balls covered in vaseline to start fires, a metal match fire starter, iodine tablets or survival straw and a solid water container to hold water. Maybe even a heavy duty extra large trash bag or a small 5'x7' tarp. If you ever get injured way out on the trail and the weather sucks you have to be ready to hold out until help arrives.

    Love the channel Kyle - your comments on concussions are completely inaccurate however. First, ibuprofen slows clotting time, but its not an incredibly material thing. Second, and more importantly, a concussion does *not* involve a brain bleed. A brain bleed is something far more severe, and something that likely will require search and rescue to help with. In the event of a concussion, the goal should be to get the person out *without* another head injury. NSAID's are not going to materially change the healing of a concussion either way (pulling inflammation off may actual prove to be a good thing for preventing cell death). Anyway, just had to comment on this one!
