Modifications
In the meantime, we have modified our motorcycles in such a way that this has significant effects/changes on the handling and comfort. From better suspension, shock absorbers, different clutch and brake levers to different footrests. The motorcycles have truly become ours.
For me, the motorcycle is not just for simple rides. The motorcycle has become part of the challenges I take on. One of those challenges is camping.
As a young child, I grew up with camping. My parents were very fond of camping, but it was always with a caravan. There was a kind of promotion system for us children. We started sleeping in the caravan. The first promotion was a sleeping spot in the awning, but the biggest promotion was being allowed to sleep in our own tent next to the caravan.
Camping
Camping has therefore been instilled in me to a certain extent from an early age. However, going on a trip and camping with the motorcycle is of a different order. I have been somewhat searching around on how to, and even now my basic equipment is still evolving.
Based on a lot of research and my personal experiences, I try to share some tips and tricks in this blog. Which will be in two parts. The first about equipment, the second about going on camping trips.
In essence, your camping equipment can be divided into three main areas:
- Shelter (for example, a tent);
- Sleep system (sleeping pad and sleeping bag);
- Storage system (for example, cases or bags).
There is an incredible amount of stuff available on the market. In all shapes and sizes. I will try to clarify the above points per component.
