Like eriksg my ride aren't often longer than 2-3 hours.
Still using a Dakine Hotlaps 2L bumbag (call it what it is, for goodness sake) and have recently ditched a few things from it into a small Blackburn frame bag that now holds a tube, small multitool, pump and repair kit.
The extra room in my bumbag means it's lighter which is nice but when I'm going for a slightly bigger ride I can fit food and maybe spares.
Taking up permanent residence in the bumbag are copious zipties, a bungy cord, emergency blanket, multitool, CO², leatherman, puncture kit, buff (for use as a neck gaiter, beanie or more often as a bandage haha) and a Giro Stow jacket that lives in the external bottle sleeve.
And if I'm truly desperate, hey, my shorts have pockets!
Yes, yes, I still ride in shorts.
