How we sleep well during Motorcycle adventures

There is nothing more annoying than having a motocamping trip being ruined by not being able to get enough sleep. It can take a lot of enjoyment out of the experience. Sadly, if you only adventure parttime, its pretty common to lie awake because your in a different environment than your used to.
In this video, we share tips on ensuring a good night's sleep during motorcycle adventures. From choosing the right gear to scouting out your campsite, we cover what we like to do to rest peacefully on the road. Join us as we dive into the art of sleeping well during motorcycle adventures!

Great Video! I just turned 62 and ride a KLR-650. I carry the most gear for my comfort which is why I use a small single wheel offroad trailer. Keeps weight down low and off my motorcycle. I enjoy riding offroad more than on the road. Don't let age stop you. Being comfortable is so important. And if you use a CPAP to sleep with that is an easy fix and shouldn't keep you out of the woods. Regards, Jude

Woah that trailer looks really awesome! We just saw it on your channel 👍😁. Really curious on how you’ll like it off the road! And hats off to you, we wish we will still be riding offroad on age 62! Have fun out there. Cheers, Luuk & Emma

i am always fascinated by europe it's one of the places i woul love to ADV on a motorcycle....i have travelled most of the eastern side of africa and there is big wildlife and fascinating landscapes especially around the lift valley but there i would like to see european landscapes and cities from before industrial revolution , steampunk to modern age , the history is well preserved and breathtaking from photos and videos and who wouldn't want to experince that...

[@Skidmate]

Oh man we would love to ride in Africa one day! But as you say Europe has some beautiful ADV opportunities as well😁. Thank you for commenting! Cheers!🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

[@Skidmate]

Hey! Great bike, isn't it?! (Almost) Unbreakable haha. Ride safe!😁🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

[@nllommertnl]

@@Skidmate yeah man love it. Needs some moda to become perfect but that's what makes it nice to me some customisation

Girls all respect!!!!!!!

[@Skidmate]

Haha girlpower!!💪🙋🏻‍♀️

[@Wrong-Way-Round]

Just found you guys, nice video. A good insulator against ground coldness is an emergency blanket (silver foil) under the air pad/mattress, they're cheap and take up no more room than a cigarette packet. Ride safe.

[@Skidmate]

Yes! This is an amazing tip!😁 Especially when you need to pack light. Thank you for commenting!🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

[@danielcarlier9143]

Pretty nice internes content, thanks for sharing 🙂

[@Skidmate]

Hi Daniel, thanks for commenting!😁 Have a nice day🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

De dame kan beter de bips naar de motor toe doen bij het optillen van de motor dat is makkelijker en beter voor de rug. Ook al zijn jullie met tweeën pak je het gewicht nu ver van je af en belast je de spieren te veel en dat houd je niet lang vol en dat zou jammer zijn. En snacht's lig je niet op een Emma matras waar je kunt herstellen 😊 Is geen klacht maar dan kan ik jullie langer volgen en kijken waar ik heen kan als ik mijn rijbewijs heb. fijne reis. have fun

[@Skidmate]

Haha nee een Emma matras past helaas niet in de bagage🤣. Over lifts: de lift die jij adviseert is ook top en gebruik ik ook wel eens, maar met zijn tweeen werkt deze lift ook zeer goed. Je ziet het op de video niet zo goed, maar Luuk haalt heel veel gewicht weg door aan de motor te hangen, dus voor mij was het super licht (monkey lift/duo lift). Maar wel bedankt voor de tip!😄 Succes met lessen! Hopelijk hoef je met het koude weer niet af te rijden🤣. Groetjes!🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

Nice one 🏕👍 Toe socks are addictive 👣😆

[@Skidmate]

Haha Thanks Michael! And yes, best socks ever made😁😁. Cheers!🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

[@DirtbikeXpeditions]

I have taken to walking the large mud holes first and if they aren’t too deep, I just run through them…lol…I seem to get into more problems when I try to go around them…

[@Skidmate]

Hey Kevin! Good tip! In hindsight, we would probably do that the next time. The sidewall was pretty awkward to ride on. Ride safe!!😁🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

[@activity1]

Watching from Pakistan... good work Keep fps to 60 ... & what mic?

[@Skidmate]

Hey great to hear from you! We use the standard mic Sena provides and modded it to fit the gopro audio (soldered a 3.5mm on it). Take care! 😁🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️

[@richardboer9155]

Hi, het is weer een heel avontuur. Volgend jaar waarschijnlijk ook ruim 2 weken zweden/Noorwegen trip doen. Maar ik vroeg me af of jullie rijden met binnenbanden en zo ja hoe repareren jullie deze wanneer nodig? Plakken of .....? En welke maand is deze aflevering? Dank voor het antwoord alvast?

[@Skidmate]

Hey Richard! Bedankt voor je bericht! Sowieso een aanrader om erheen te gaan, fantastisch rijden daar. Deze video is rond juli opgenomen. Wat betreft de banden rijden wij met: - Binnenbanden - 1 reserve 21-inch voorband die in al onze banden past in nood. En een plaksetje - En een mini elektrische pomp van Stop & Go En natuurlijk gereedschap zoals de Motion Pro Bead Pro bandenlichters. Heel veel plezier met de voorbereidingen!😄🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️
