How much plastic do you carry?

[Cush]

I have just got my wallet ready for todays outing and was amazed at how much "plastic" was in it.
Today I have: 1) Donor Card always carried (2) Bus pass always carried (3) Library Card normally carried (4) Cash Card Normally carried (5) Credit card nearly always carried. These are standard items. Today I also have a Railpass. In my other wallet there are cards that I will carry on a prolonged journey or sometimes use. Driving licence, AA card, Museum pass, Records office pass, NT Pass. These are the important one's. In addition there are club cards (RA CC etc) and discount store cards(six but four are never used). Thats roughly 21 bits of plastic but in addition to this is the gym pass and locker card that are kept with my gym kit. No wonder things get lost,!!

I carry similar. To some though, that's too much weight.

I know guys who carry one £10 note in case of emergency. These are guys who go for a p1ss before their ride to reduce the weight.

Starting at the first pouch and working through, I have my bus pass, a Go-outdoors discount card, my AA card, Camping and Caravan club card, driving licence, a couple of personal cards from my wife, Government Gateway card, debit card, savings card, credit card (unused for a couple of years), British Cycling membership card, library card. Silly really, most of the cards I don't need to carry.
