Entirely depend on the climate in which you are going. I have to go
prepared for 3.75 seasons year round regardless of forecast. We've had
tornados, flooding, hail, snow, sunny and clear even, sometimes on the same

I have it pretty good. My S24O strategy is basically:
1. Live life
2. Wait for text from Manny

A soft sided, insulated 6 pack sized cooler with those freezy blocks will
keep the beer cold enough for a few hours. Camping gear, eh, I forgot my
pad one time & I'm still here. Bike maintenance? Nothing beyond
whatever's on the bike for normal riding. My MSR pocket rocket is handy
for heat
