Good stuff amigo! I subscribed, keep up the good work! 🍻

[@Hogdriver88]

Appreciate that - thanks for the sub!

Hi 1250 gsa !!!

[@thereshegoes757]

So cool, I'll be doing this myself sometime soon. I've never camped outside of my own back yard though 😅 But I've got all my stuff ready and hope to hit a campground in the mountains in the next few weeks. Thanks for sharing your video, it's a big help

[@Hogdriver88]

Go for it! I need to get out there again soon, before it gets too warm. For your first trip, keep it simple. All you really need is shelter, water for hydration, and a flashlight or a headlamp… everything else is optional. But the optional stuff makes it more fun. A great source of info and gear is Moto Camp Nerd, right here in NC. Thanks for watching and good luck with your trip!

Fall colours look amazing!! Can’t believe what good weather you have! Has anyone else mentioned that your video is freezing? I’m having trouble playing it!

[@Hogdriver88]

Hey Murt! It was a great weekend, if a little warm, but I’ll take it. No other mention of video freezing, and I’ve watched it through a bunch of times - no issues here either. May be your connection? Thanks for watching, my friend.

@@Hogdriver88 I’ll have a look see again! Probably a bird 🦅 sitting on my phone line! 😆

Looks like a great trip. Weather is getting real cold up here in Massachusetts now. Been riding in the 40’s brrrrr

[@Hogdriver88]

A fast one-nighter but it was good. Yes you guys will be freezing in no time - get that wood stove going in the garage!

[@thomassmith7780]

Hey Gregg, Great video! Motorbike camping and cooking sure beats Red Bull, Beef Jerky Gas and go. Lol

[@Hogdriver88]

You got that right! The pace and menu are a little different now than they were back then 😂

[@the_mad_leprechaun]

Hello Gregg, I actually got to watch all of your video! I need a coffee maker like your one! I do love a coffee in the morning! The camping spot looks amazing! Can we go camping there please? 😆 oh would you like some Mad Leprechaun stickers? Murt

[@Hogdriver88]

Hey Murt - glad you were able to see it all. Yes, it was a very nice spot. That coffee pot is the Maxi MyClean coffee maker moka pot. This one is the 14 ounce size; there is also a 5 ounce size. No paper filters required, but I've found it does need the high and concentrated heat from a pocket-rocket style gas stove. If you use espresso coffee you may want to either use SMALL cups, or cut it with hot water! That's a cool logo you have - I'd love to some stickers, I'll let you know as soon as I set up my PO Box. I also need to get some made but I haven't come up with a logo yet...

Great video. I like your camping gear. I was wondering how long it would take to set up the lonerider tent. I imagine when it's a nice day like you had it's not too bad. But I couldn't imagine trying to set up in the rain. Hotel stay for me 😂. Ride safe!

[@Hogdriver88]

Thanks! Set up is supposed to be basic - stake out the 4 corners, insert the poles, pull it up and guy it down. But with the inner tent staying connected to the fly, and all the webbing, it can be a tangled mess. That tent would NOT be fun to set up in the rain - hotel for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@offcourseoutdoors8366]

This looked like fun trip! I hope you got what you needed with this shakedown moto camp. You also need to upgrade to Davinci Resolve 18.5 lol ! Cheers!

[@Hogdriver88]

It all worked out pretty well. This was my second camping overnight this year, but the first solo and cooking dinner and breakfast (and good coffee) Thanks for watching Mike 👍

[@dantheman4life]

Nice tent! That stove is really nice. I’ve checked out the channel and you can cook all kinds of stuff with it. Very nice place you picked out as well.

[@dantheman4life]

That’s one heck of a meal! Thanks for sharing.

[@Hogdriver88]

Thanks Dan. Full stand up head room in that vestibule - it’s like a whole other room when it’s all zipped up. Steve at Firebox Stove is a genius with the stuff he comes up with. Good company to buy cooking gear from. Thanks for watching 👍

[@Hogdriver88]

Thanks - the grilled sirloin was awesome!

[@larry68hd11]

Take the last train to Clarksville

[@Hogdriver88]

🤣

[@RoamingWithRobert]

great video. thanks for sharing. I'm somewhat close by in southwest VA and have nearly identical gear. Although i prefer my coffee brewed with an Aeropress. Just getting back into riding and just started moto-camping. Hit me up if you wanna ride/camp.

[@Hogdriver88]

I've never tried an Aeropress - looks like a lot of work. This perk was not the easiest either - I think good old Taster's Choice is the way to go for camping. Looking forward to getting back out there soon - I'll let you know if I head back up that way. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
