1. eyeliner
   
2. sunblock
   
3. two house bricks (useful for propping up the bike and for sorting out bent cranks, wheels or track-ends)
   
4. bike mechanic stand for emergencies
   
5. 2 packs of Camel
   
6. a pair of tights

All I have so far is:

1. eyeliner
   
2. sunblock
   
3. two house bricks (useful for propping up the bike and for sorting out bent cranks, wheels or track-ends)
   
4. bike mechanic stand for emergencies
   
5. Cheese board. Requests considered.

I'm only quoting the SENSIBLE suggestions.

one of those caffeinated gels that taste horrible but help you do the last 20miles

Sounds like one of my espresso's.

Just don't bother with the water.

Either that or just eat spoonfuls of instant coffee granules and wash it down with Jolt Cola.

Just cram them into your cheeks and let your teeth gradually disolve as you go along.

Ach, all this effort and all it's going to lead to is tricitybendix chopping the list back down to the 'sensible' suggestions. My heart is bleeding. As if riding the DD has ever been sensible.

is anyone considering to bring a swim wear for a refreshing time...if weather allows

Fortunately I have been in a meeting and I don't have the heart to kill it now so it can stay. I was being perfectly serious about the eyeliner though, I'll be needing to reapply it at least every couple of hours if the weather's like this

if there's enough space in my bag I'm going to pack a small towel and probably just paddle in my bib shorts

yes, a small towel can be very usefull...I'm thinking how to carry it.

i'd bring some warm clothes and maybe one of these:

it was bloody freezing at the end until the sun comes up and all you want is a few hours sleep. also, as mentioned by someone else earlier on, housebricks are essential.

I've just had a brainwave.. I might just get some tape and strap it to the top-tube

I will take it easy and arrive there when the sun is up, even because i need to wait the coach

tricity your comment about bringing a spare saddle reminded me of punkpixel last year - dude bought a spare seatpost IIRC.
