I usually carry a small flatbladed screwdriver as well for idle/air screw. Check the air pressure in all tires. But you you have pretty much everything else covered.. But i'm not 1 to talk i have done the same thing gathered all tools and left my dam helmet and gogles home..lol..

also some antifreeze for watercooled trikes and some water, to cool off something or get fine dirt off.

lol right?
I would throw in a case of Mountain Dew, and a strap for your 6-pack rack, cant carry low grade malt without it.
Also if you have a watercooled trike, some radiator sealant and maybe a air tank if you need air in your tires if you dont fill them at home/camp. If you have a slide type carb on your trike as well, bring some change if the needle jumps or to jump a solenoid.
Tie- Wraps too. If you get the big ones, you can use it as a tow strap.

I always check my lug nuts, hub nuts, and front axle nuts. Buddy lost his this past weekend, could have been really ugly really fast.
