You never want to overload yourself, but you never want to be ill prepared either so here are a few lists of equipment that I advise for any hike, walk, amble or bike ride.
It is also important to check the weather-it’ll affect what you’ll need!
Walks
- Water
- Coat/jumper/waterproof
- Good shoes or wellies
- Map
- Phone (charged)
- Camera
- Snacks / picnic (optional!)
Bike rides (as above plus….)
- Tyre pump
- Adjustable spanner
- Puncture repair kit
- Bike and helmet!
