I'm in the process of looking ahead to next summer, hoping to do allot of motorcycle camping in the upcoming year. Currently, it's just as well to say I have zero gear that I would want to strap on the bike.
Let's start with a tent, sleeping bag, sleeping roll, camp chair, etc. The big ticket items:
1. Looking for a tent that is moderately priced that packs down relatively small. Performance in rain is important also, the Mrs may or may not accompany me on some of these trips.
2. Sleeping bag and roll combo. I've never used a roll in the past, are they worth the extra bother to tote around,on the bike? I have a rather large and thick down filled sleeping bag at the moment, overkill for summer camping and rather large to pack on the bike. Any thoughts on a lighter weight bag that will suffice during the summer yet packs down small?
3. Camp chair. I hear they are a must! Thoughts?
What do fellow RTR members use/recommend? I'm hoping to gather up some nice items over the coming months...
