The most important gear to take with you while offroad riding is safety gear. This means primarily the clothing you wear - gloves, helmet, padding, armor, back protection.
Dress according to the conditions you are riding in - if you are riding in the rain, mud or through creeks and rivers, wear waterproof clothing. If you are riding in hot conditions, wear loose, lightweight clothing.
In terms of protection - the parts of your body which hit the ground first when you come off are the ones that need protection. That means your head, your knees, your feet and your hands. There is plenty of good gear to purchase to protect these parts of your body.
The other important gear to carry depends on how long you are going away for. If you are away from civilization for most of the day, then take plenty of water and food with you, in case you are unable to return to the luxury of civilization within your given time frame. Being hungry, tired and possibly sore from injury is no way to spend long hours away from creature comfort, and the convenience of shops.
It's good to carry a basic medical kit in case the worst occurs and somebody injures themselves on the ride. Getting medical attention out in the wilderness can be difficult if not impossible. There are plenty of good, compact medical kits available to take with you.
Carrying some spare parts and limited tools is ideal. You usually only need a limited range of tools to fix these problems, plus the important spare parts.
If you think you will need to stay overnight on your journey, you need to carry two things as a minimum - some form of bedding which will keep you warm enough through the night, and some form of protection from the wind and rain. This could be as simple as a sleeping bag and bivvy bag or tarpaulin.
In terms of water, most riders like to take a camel-back with them. A camel-back is a water bag you carry on your back, with a tube to drink water from hooked into it.
In terms of food, high energy bars are good in terms of their small size and energy delivery for trail riding.
The last thing to carry is gear that helps you attach all of your gear to the bike. There are a range of bungee cords and tie down straps you can use, as well as luggage systems. This is important because you don't want your gear to fly off as you are bouncing around on the trail.

Winterizing Your Car
As the weather gets colder in the winter months, there are some important steps that you need to take in order to ensure your car is ready for the winter. The season can bring you difficulty driving on the roads, along with its freezing temperatures that every driver has to deal with. If you follow these certain steps, winter travel will be much less hazardous, and your car will be more likely to start on those cold winter mornings.
Before you head out on the icy roads, check your tires. This is a procedure that is most necessary, because if your tires do not have enough tread, they will not give you enough traction when battling the icy roads. If the tread is worn down to the tires wear bars, then your tires need to be replaced as soon as possible. Under these conditions, your tires would not be safe, even in seasons other than winter. In addition, if your area sees a lot of snow, snow tires are a good option for you. Check to make sure you have snow chains ready, in case you ever need them.
Get your car checked out by a professional to ensure the mechanical system is running properly. Change your oil if it hasn't been changed recently, in addition make sure the mechanic inspects the cars brakes, hoses, battery, and fluid levels. Do not forget to make sure your windshield wipers are in good working order, and you have adequate wiper fluid.
Be prepared that while you may have taken all of the right precautions, your car still holds the risk of breaking down, and leaving you stranded in the middle of terrible weather. If you are not fully prepared, this calls for danger that could possibly leave your life at risk. Do the smart thing, and pack a winter emergency kit to keep in the trunk of your car. Here are some common items that you will want to be included:
- Ice scraper and/or brush to keep the windshield clear, you may also want to include a bottle of ice-removal spray.
- Jumper cables -- You should always have these in your car, but especially during wintertime.
- Flashlight and spare batteries
- Heavy blanket
- Jacket and gloves
- Bottled water and snacks
- Cell phone
Even though wintertime driving can be dangerous, following these steps above will make your traveling a lot safer and easier!
