Beaky's Bitz - Part 4 - Pannier

So what do I keep in that left pannier?  The pannier is slightly smaller on this side as there is a cut out for the exhaust, but it neatly holds the smaller hessian bag from Tesco (the larger style fitting the right side perfectly)

This is where I store all the stuff I carry all the time, and runs to just under half the pannier.

Top row, left to right: hi-viz jacket in zip pocket; paracord and maglite; pocket knife; belt cutter.  These all fit into the pouch.

Bottom row, left to right: Kreiga tool roll; duct tape and electrical tape; spare glasses, 1/2" socket handle, spare headlight bulbs (pack of two).

Most of that is self explanatory.  Hi-Viz and bulbs are legal requirements here in France. Paracord, duct tape and electrical tape can fix pretty much everything between them.  The pocket knife is a folding Opinel that I need to modify to not lock open before I return to the UK. 

The belt cutter was a freebie and is designed to cut through car seat belts safely.  I figured it would be potentially more use with the bike than in a drawer at home.

The socket handle is for the 24mm socket I have that undoes the rear wheel nut, but is too large for the tool roll.

Speaking of which...in there are:

Top row, left to right: craft knife; small screw driver; socket handle; stumpy screwdriver for hex heads and 24mm socket (1/2" drive); snips; pliers; cable ties.

Bottom row, left to right: pencil, torx allen keys (T50, 45, 40) and T40 and T25 1/4" drive bits; Torx T40, T30, T25, T20: T15, T10; selection of hex bits; 1/4" drive sockets (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13mm); pressure gauge.

Right side, top to bottom: spanners (17, 13, 13 (again..) 11/10 and 10mm); adjustable spanner (metric!);  allen keys 6mm, 5, 4, 3).

Missing from the photos is a plastic folder with my documents in (another legal requirement here), several rok-straps for strapping on luggage and a couple of regular bungees.
