Now, I carry (at a minimum) antiseptic wipes, band aids, and pain relieving antibiotic ointment like Neo-Sporin.
I also take a cool neck wrap. I don't know what you really call them. The brand name on mine is Cool Snake. It's flat until you put it in water, then it swells up and stays cool. It's great.
Txi, how can you even THINK about the colder months right now? What I wouldn't give for a nice blue norther...
