Haha! After I took industrial and basic wilderness first aid it seemed crazy to not travel better equipped. I used to carry an array of stuff but I've pared it down to this, which is very light:
1 sam splint, 1 triangle bandage, 1 tensor, a bunch of tape. With that you can secure a forearm/elbow/ankle, easily make a sling, manage most cuts/lacerations.
TBH if you're just going to carry one thing: the triangle bandage is the cheapest, lightest and most versatile piece of first aid kit. Every person should carry one on every ride.
