EVERYONE THE DISCOUNT CODE FOR NELSON RIGG WILL BE OPERATIONAL IN THE MORNING SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE
For the first time in many years, we find ourselves doing across country motorcycle trip just on motorcycles. We’ve always traveled with some sort of pull-behind motorcycle trailer and it was quite the experience to fit everything we needed for camping on just the bikes. Were we successful? Well...Yes and No!
Rich & Chris ❤️❤️

Well, at least you're not trying to set up a new tent in the dark with rain. Also after many decades of sleeping on a pad I've learned to sleep on a Helinox cot and it is great. One side benefit has been while boondocking one night a heavy thunderstorm came through and I slept high and dry. We rode in the rain the next day and I won't do that again.

Y'see, if you had KEPT the Trailer you would have had PLENTY of space for your scuba gear ! In summery, that wasn't it. (Pun) More seriously, Yeah Richard, your pants are wet because of THE RAIN ! I like how at 14:37 you fix lamp posts onto your bikes. Regarding too much 'stuff'. Decades ago I read a story in 'Easy Rider' Magazine where a Biker set off with just his Harley, sleeping bag and a tin of beans. TOTALLY inspiring and the essence of Biking Freedom. Stuff = Bother. Thanks just for being you. PS. I have lost VAST weight after a long illness, and am SERIOUSLY fitter now, and at 71 I will be getting my Yamaha Viagra out again. Perhaps even buying a second 'Adventure' Bike for some camping. Or maybe just a Waterproof Sleeping Bag and some Beans. (You inspirations, you !) Keep safe, have fun Kids. .

Another issue is food items, fresh stuff is a nice to have not a need. Use the freeze dried packets for your meals, most taste pretty good, pack easily and do take up as much space as your fresh store items. The ole morning coffee...well instant coffee is also a better deal packing wise if you find a brand you like the taste of. Take it out of the jar and put into resealable plastic bag. Your Yeti is great choice for cooler and Ice is available along the roads at most fuel stops. The trick is to reduce your need for a cooler and learn to enjoy one pot meals. You will not die or starve and many one pot recopies are darn good. I spent five years riding ATVs on long 200 plus mile rides cross country and an ATV can carry twice as much as a motorcycle can. Much slower pace, but never suffered one day in the boondocks of the Mojave or western USA states.

I have watched every episode ! Bought stuff from your online store,.... just love y'all !! Lots of interesting things. 20 yrs ago I did a great deal of motorcycle camping. It is amazing how we learn to do w/o and still get by! It is an ART-FORM! I would like to make a humble suggestion. Apparel that you wear, that protects you etc.... I have found works out best when each item has multiple uses. For 1 example. No need for a pillow. Part of riding gear or related can be used as pillow. When I comes to riding gear, invest in the best and most versatile. After ten years of getting wet, road rash from Joe rocket cheep-o. kind of gear to Aerostitch... which is not much better.... I discovered MOTOPORT Gear. You only need the outer jacket and pants and a liner. You get ultimate protection, and save LOTS AND LOTS of space.... that you are now using to pack extra stuff. NOTHING IS cooler than Motoport when its hot, and NOTHING is warmer than Motoport with the liner in. If its below 45 a simple heated vest and you. " are Snug as a bug in rug". No affiliation here, but I wanted to share the love and knowledge that WORKS and WORKS WELL!!! Motoport gear is the ONLY gear on the planet that has proven itself in real world motorcycle operation! BTW, nothing but nothing will keep you dryer in the driving rain! Ask me how I know! There are Dry bags you can put in your saddle bags or where ever to keep your stuff dry. here is a link to some better ones....www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/kriega-us-30-drypack?sku_id=1641396 BTW, If ever my health gets better and I can afford another bike, I will come looking for y'all and we can kick tire and tell lies over the camp fire! Stay safe, ride like you are invisible and keep the shinny side up!!! Gods Speed! I have my eyes set on the Honda NC750X dct. A life time of earning my daily bread by using my hands, leaves one, at 70, in somewhat of a compromised ability for many things. After riding my dearly-departed R1200gs for 3 days back to back... I had to wait a week before I could use my left hand. Getting old SUCKS! lol.

Wow that's quite a return to a simpler form of travel, cool! I am just back from my first 1100 mile trip of the year. I pack everything into small roll top dry bags before putting them in my panniers. I have not had water in the panniers (yet) but it's an insurance. I do the same with my clothes that I keep in a big roll top bag on the seat behind me. Also I have a warm (exhaust) side and cold side with my panniers. Butane gas and anything else that can be spoiled / damaged by heat goes cold side. Last, I balance the panniers as closely as I can weight wise. I love your channel as we are people of a similar age and I'm really looking forward to your new adventures.

i subbed on your last video(showing the different trailers etc.) this video was an eye opener. packing, overloaded. the other videos i watch, the people do say to do a dry run. that's a big tent. i have a 3 person tent. i have set it up once. i want to do it again, and give it a good rain proof spray, and let it dry real good. i plan on doing a long motorcycle trip next May. now i figure i am going to do some short 100 milers, camping to figure out what i might need and what i need. so far i am loving your videos. y'all are pretty laid back. that rain had to be pretty crappy. great tips while touring. until next time, stay safe.

Excellent! we all have to re-considerate our packing, the good news is it's constantly evolving and the name of the game is efficiency against weight. on my WarPony, I have enough room to carry my everyday needs, but if I buy something new, something has to leave...period. I love to see you going back (for a while?) to the basic drifter's lifestyle....this will help our trip to Mexico...soon

OMG. I've ridden hundreds of miles in heavy rain too. No fun, but I did it with no issues. Safe travels.

I love those packets of tuna fish they are fantastic. I use a teaspoon to get down into them.

Hey, I know what to say. You two are excellent riders out there in that weather with your bikes loaded like that. I'm almost green with envy 'cause I can't ride that well. Great job!

Yea! Glad to see you downsized the stuff to your early days of biking. I don't do any camping so all my stuff is in the two side bags & one 60L dry bag. You seem to need more elec/solar gear for your video production work & camping gear. Great job.

Neoprene gloves are great for rainy weather. I also noticed that ya'll buy eggs by the dozen. Why don't you buy eggs in a liquid form. They won't break and they'll pack better. Stay safe and great video.

Kind of a wet start, but the weather looked spectacular at the end of this episode! On my recent camping trip, just a few days, I rode to the campground early in an attempt to run between storms. It actually worked! I was able to get set up before a very heavy rain. Looking forward to following this years adventures, and your comparison to previous years. Be safe, Patrick
