More Stuff...

Today the order from Jenson USA came in!
I had ordered a Topeak Pump, Topeak Multi Tool, some patch kits, and an extra tube.  

    The pump appears to be everything I wished for...
I have actually never used a frame pump before, so my dad thought this one would be a good choice.  It has a flexible hose, so I won't have to worry about stabilizing the pump/valve connection.  It also has a handy fold-down pad to stand on.
    Now that I have the multi tool, I don't have to be dependent on my brothers or dad to supply tools when I have work to do on my bike.  For extended work, I would prefer to use individual tools though...the multi tool is pretty bulky.
    Now that I have all these accessories, I can venture farther from home by myself....if I get a flat, I now have the equipment to repair it myself!

I have that same pump, it seems to work well. I'm still looking for a good multi-tool, that one you bought looks like a possibility.

Have you decided where/when you are going?

Best of luck!

My dad chose the multi-tool, and is pretty impressed with it. He likes it better than the one he has!
I'm still working on where exactly I'm going, but I've got some general destinations in mind....
