are you like camping out? If so get a big duffle and tie it on to the back of your seat/grab bar with a little tarp or very small tent for shelter, sleeping bag, food (easy mac or romain noddle are sweet for backpacking, with a lil stove they cook fast) If your just ridng and going back to camp tow rope, slime, so way to inflate tire, plug, extra oil, carry water with you. (take all the stuff with you if your "backpacking" as well, i also bring fixaflat in the duffle its easier to use out in the middle of nowhere but does screwup your tire eventually)

Plenty of water , a knife ( can be used in MANY situation) , first aid kit ( you can get one of those small ones that attatch around your waist) , rope .

Call me dumb or whatever , but I always carry a belt with me .... no not a drive belt ... but the kind to keep your pants around your waist . The reason being , it's VERY useful for different things . It also probably saved my life .... makes for a good tourniquet in case you happen to take a tumble and maybe slice a major blood vesel . Helped save me from bleeding to death when I had my accident .
