Any suggestions for the best way to carry the gear. Might like a

use it quickly as well as travel with it in a pouch or something
secured to
the bike.
When I'm just using a single lens, I find that a handlebar bag is the
simplest way to go. Keeps it up high and within easy reach after
stopping the bike. I use an old piece of fleece to line the bag and
to keep the camera from getting scratched up in there.
It's funny how quickly that little bit of weight (camera with kit
lens) adds up to making the steering feel "heavy", though... I don't
know how your bike would behave if there was a handlebar bag on it
which was big enough to handle the camera *and* a few lenses.
