Default GMVI checklist- What to bring

Righto

Just a bit of my OCD kicking in, what to take. I'm currently at:

- Full textiles on the forecast I've seen
- Winter Gloves and liners plus the summer gloves
- Jump leads for Chucca's bike
- Tools
- Sidestand puck (A must for everyone)

Anything else?

Your call your staff "colleagues"? Most odd.

There's a specific version that works - last time I went up there, it was the green bottle spray-on. I'll report back, as I'm off to Go Outdoors today to stock up (What strength do you need? Scotland...)
