I see a lot of guys with all kinds of storage and stuff tied on to the front and backs of thier quads. What do you guys generally bring with you when you got trailriding for the day?

depends on what kind of ride im going on, A fast ride or a long rough terrained ride way out into the boonies.

Long rides i have my front box with tow rope, tools, maybe a water or two, spare belt, etc. On the back rack i have my kolpin fuel cell, mad dog rear seat rack bag with, extra cloths(for cold riding and such), poncho, food, camera, water, etc.

My rides with my young teenager buds are a lot more fast paced so i just have basically what is in my front box with nothing on the back rack except maybe my fuel cell.

Tow straps, cumalong, ****** blocks, tire patch kit, compressor, towels, extra spark plugs and fuses, a handfull of extra hardware (from experience) and some water. If I take a long ride like at Hatfield McCoy I also carry extras like a rain poncho and extra socks.

Has anyone mentioned GPS yet?

If you trail riding in a forest or wooded area like I do, a winch is one of the most useful accessory to install on your quad, especially if you are riding alone.

I sometimes carry an extra fuel jug as well, and dried foods, bottled water, etc. One time I got lost for hours in the middle of no where in an mountain, and I told myself "well, this is how people die when they get lost...."

This is a good topic-just curious what type of air compressor you carry?
