When cycling, the most important gear to have is a helmet. Protective glasses are also imperative, as tree branches can endanger the eyes or the rider in front of you may kick up some debris. Padded gloves and padded cycling shorts are highly recommended if you will be in the saddle for more than 30 minutes. Other essential items to have when riding are the following tools and supplies: Chain tool, spare inner tube, tire levers (to help lift off the tire from the rim when changing a flat), inner tube patch kit, mini pump, and small allen wrenches that fit your bike. Make sure you also take water and a snack for energy while riding.
