1 spare links of chain

1 glueless patches

1 ID card with my name and personal info just in case

And then what I carry in my middle back jersey pocket

1 glueless patches
1 presta valve adaptor
1 presta valve extender
1 powerbar wrapper to boot a cut tire

You have to give Flecha credit for attacking with 4k to go and holding on as long as he did. Hey, he had Boonan in the chase group and that’s enough to make you work to stay off the front.
