Solo Motorcycle Camping Alone With My Harley Davidson Road Glide

🔹 Solo Motorcycle Camping Alone With My Harley Davidson Road Glide here in Minnesota, I have been camping hundreds of times but never by myself, I generally like to have some company whether it be a friend or my son when I am camping, someone to talk to and share the adventure with but this gave me an opportunity to make this video and test out some gear so its worth it. This is my first solo motocamping experience, I hope you enjoy!

I went Motercycle camping last week for the first time in my life and it’s was great. Got a little cold at 47 degrees but survived. I’ll be going again. In Oklahoma it gets really hot in the summer so spring and fall our best for tent camping. Enjoyed your video! Keep them coming brother.

[@Touringmidwest]

Thank you and I'm glad that you have it a go and enjoyed it. Happy camping.

[@RTOutdoors]

The peace of a solo camping trip. Nothing better.

[@Touringmidwest]

It was pretty good, hopefully get one more in before it gets to cold.

[@triglideadventure5235]

4 inches of snow last night... had to watch a camping video and yours won. Thanks for taking the time to make it.

[@Touringmidwest]

Snow... 😝 hopefully it melts fast. Thanks for stopping by and dropping a comment.

[@HarleyDayRider]

This was great man thanks for sharing. I need to sometime just head out on my own and try something like this. It is always nice to get away and back to nature. Ride Safe

[@Touringmidwest]

So nice to get out for a little reset.. sleeping outside does something to ya.. it also makes your back stiff but its the price you pay 😆

[@mikeyb6737]

I enjoyed this. Ty from the other side of the world in Australia. Cheers

[@Touringmidwest]

No worries.. good to know you. I have a good buddy in Australia his channel is @skidpig Thank you for stopping by.

[@sheade_mcshyster]

Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

[@Touringmidwest]

Thank you.

[@reinharddesar6005]

Hey my Friend, super Video. Reinhard out Germany

[@Touringmidwest]

Thanks for the visit, that is Awesome, Welcome!

[@cinna_to4st_waff1es]

That Harley Davidson jacket goes great for bike , and plus riding solo is best, one day I'll try riding solo a.d camping 👍

[@Broncoride]

Nice vid man. Good call just to do this on the fly. Very peaceful for sure. Good choice on the food.

[@Touringmidwest]

Thanks brother, it was great I can not wait to get out again. hopefully one more before I run out of season.

[@mohawkmikemotorcycles9077]

Really neat video.

[@Touringmidwest]

Thank you very much!

[@SB-vh7jn]

Good job man

[@mommasoph8629]

Great video drew

[@Touringmidwest]

Thanks soph

[@randalltom9750]

Solo is my thing... as an introvert I recharge in solitude. On my bike, about four or five nights, a convenient creek to wash in, plenty of good food, a small fire at night, minimal gear, and plenty of twisties In Idaho or Montana, is perfect... for me.

[@Touringmidwest]

Good stuff!

[@orangecrush1976]

They should make the fork prongs thicker and have fewer of them. Maybe a three prong fork would be more appropriate.

[@Touringmidwest]

that might be the secret formula right there.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

Thanks for taking us along :) lol I like camping by myself because at some point someone feels the need to whine about how cold it is, or that they didn't bring the right kind of gear, bugs, blah blah. I have very little patience for whiners when I'm trying to enjoy my nature time.

[@Touringmidwest]

Thanks for joining me, I had a great time. Yeah alone time is good, I guess i just enjoy sharing experiences with somebody else, I don't like drinking alone either haha. P.s. I might be one of the whiners you speak of 😆 🤣 I usually forget something important.

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

😂 hopefully you've never forgotten a sleeping pad, or a warm enough sleeping bag... one year at the Dream Roll a girl forgot to pack the rain fly for her tent (a pretty fatal mistake in the PNW) and all I could think was.... how the heck do you 'forget' your rain fly lool

[@jamesbecker5977]

Damn good vid! Glad I subscribed.

[@Touringmidwest]

I very much appreciate that, I am glad you subscribed as well. Thank you, stay safe!

[@wskeyson3382]

Ditto! ( I guess I could've said "me too", same # of letters.

[@Trenta5mm]

you're an inspiration even tho i've a little cute sportster and i can't do camping with that :DDDD

[@Touringmidwest]

It wouldn't be easy but you could do some on a sporty. Thank you for your support. Stay safe out there.

[@DavisMahavis]

Enjoying your videos... Come do a motocamping trip here in West Virginia.

[@Touringmidwest]

That would be a fun trip

[@doulos77]

WV really is great for riding and camping. We try to get there once a riding season, and I'm from a neighboring state

[@BigBert]

Great video Drew, sorry I missed the live. I have got myself a jet boil on your recommendation and it’s grate for a brew on the side of the road 😎🤙🏻

[@Touringmidwest]

Man I love that thing, I actually enjoy using that system more than I thought i would.

[@justrobb6526]

Way too many ads! Surprised you didn’t fire up a stogie. Only 1 week left of riding up here on the Iron Range. So sad, but it’s where I chose to live.

[@Touringmidwest]

I thought I had midrolls turned off, I'll check. Should just be ads at the beginning and end.

[@tonycurrie2964]

You should get yourself a swag.

[@Touringmidwest]

That’s what @skidpig told me too

[@BrewCityRider]

State parks are the best! Very interested to hear what you have to say about that tent. I've been looking at a two-man of that model.

[@Touringmidwest]

I plan to do a review on this, I had a short review in this video but I removed it because it was not fitting the flow. I have not seen the lynx2 in person yet but this one is pretty good and has some nice features but man its tiny haha 😄 I would like to get the lynx 2 also because I want to compare it directly to my half dome 2+ I think they will be very similar and my tent is almost perfect in my opinion, I love it.

[@stevec7730]

Great video Andrew. Really good production value and I like the tunes. You are making me hungry and want to go moto camping. If only it wasn’t raining here. Only feedback is WAY too many ads in that video. If you could cut those back a bit, that would be appreciated. Hard to get fully into the video when you get interrupted every 4 minutes with an ad. Happy riding!

[@Touringmidwest]

Yeah sorry about that i meant to turn off midroll ads, they are off now.. not that you'd want to watch it again but thanks from the future viewers. 😄

[@stevec7730]

Touring Midwest Thanks Andrew! Much appreciated! Keep up the good videos!

[@DeBa1226]

Bro, that’s livin.... I’d do that all day long rather than hanging around the house with nothing on tv. How far did you ride from home to catch that campground? Nice to go solo and enjoy some quiet time...good stuff... really enjoyed this bud. You should do a whole series of solo camp outs off the a Road Glide!

[@Touringmidwest]

I definitely should. This camp ground is way close, i only had to ride a few minutes to get there

[@DeBa1226]

@@Touringmidwest then you could have saved your gas and walked there with your tent. Lol. Better get yourself all prepared and get another camp out before the snow starts flying. Take a trip south to KRIVER in October!

[@road_slide]

Just found out this channel. I’m doubting about how to travel. Soft luggage or tourpack. What is your opion ? Previous HD had a tourpack so didn’t have these questions. Now I’m doubting what to do.

[@Touringmidwest]

Hmmm, I love hard luggage but there are some good options for soft luggage as well. Check the top deck ii from @rikrak or @ciro has come out with some really nice luggage options as well.

[@wskeyson3382]

Vou can throw the wood fork into the forest when you're done and say.....You're home!

[@Touringmidwest]

Lol 😆 🤣 😂

[@terryhewitt2332]

What was the last song called

[@Touringmidwest]

Hmm I’m not sure if I can find it again, I use copyright free music from either epidemic sound or once in a while KZbin’s creator library.

[@oldsoldier181]

How'd you like the tent? They are good for quick solo nights, or if you are moving constantly. I love the solo tents for quick pitches. Those things are storm proof too. If I am staying more than a night, I will certainly take a bigger tent.

[@Touringmidwest]

I do like it for how small it is packable, and also the small size makes it nice for staying warm in chilly weather, works well for an over night trip or like you said on the move it would be great but man if I was in stormy weather and that was my only shelter.. id lose my mind in that small off a space.. i had a whole little first impressions bit in this video but I felt that it slowed down the progression for this one plus added another 4 minutes so I cut it out sadly.. i still want to do a video about it though, thanks again, it's a solid tent with many of the features I liked for when I bought my tent so I definitely think it will make a solid video.

[@Touringmidwest]

Also gavin has not a chance to try it out yet but he thought it was really cool that you sent it to us so thank you from him as well.

[@oldsoldier181]

@@Touringmidwest It would be great for him to take with you guys, when he is ready. Glad it works for you and went to a person that could use it!

[@DavisMahavis]

Do you like the 1 man tent? Is it plenty of room for you or could you use a little more.

[@Touringmidwest]

Its tiny, I could do an over night maybe 2 but if I had to spend any time in it other than sleeping I might lose my mind lol. I have a 2 man that I usually use. I plan on doing a review on this one in the near future.

[@Doug_Morgan]

You're making me hungry.

[@Touringmidwest]

Lol, I love camp food

[@71sc502]

wow, a bagger being used for what it's for. everyone where I live spends 40-50k on a bagger only to take a maximum 2 miles away to a bar or maybe 2 bike runs a year

[@Touringmidwest]

I do love to get it packed down and do some camping.
