The black nylon bags attached to seat is a bike bag. In Japan a bike must be in a bag to carry with public transportations. I have many experiences to transport my bike via many kind of transportations (plane, boat, ferry, motor bike, taxi, train) with the bag. The silver sleeping pad (cut into two parts and short sized) and tent poles are tied by rubber band. There is a 1L water bottle on the frame.
