Regarding feeling exposed in lycra, while wearing shades and helmet, nobody even knows who I am. This is liberating from any thoughts of self consciousness. Fook 'em. And you should be able to carry everything you need in a mini seat bag and three jersey pockets.

Seriously though, how much stuff do you really need to carry? Yesterday I fit all I needed into 2/3 of my jersey pockets:
2 cheese buns
Banana
Glueless patch kit
Crank Brothers tire lever
CO2 inflator head
2 CO2 cartridges
Mini tool with chainbreaker
ID
Debit card
$20 bill
Keys
Phone
Add some change since out frickin' buses don't take bills.
