      No problem mate. I just got back from a winter trip and it was invaluable. It does take up considerable space though, so naturally it depends on what and where you are going if you take it with you. Stay safe and keep riding 👍🏼

    Nice. I bought some Snugpak gear for my motocamping setup. I can't wait to arrive! Good roads!

    Just started my RUclips channel about 3 weeks ago, and did a 52min video on what I carry motorcycle camping... Should have done 5, 10min videos....oh well live, and learn!...lol. I showed everything I have to go camping, or so I thought!.. when I finish the video I found some things I forget!.. everything I have for camping weighs about 80lbs!...but in the video I tried to make it clear that what you carry depends on what type camping you do and how long you plan on camping! I live in Detroit, Michigan, and because of Covid-19 the state park here only let you do a day camp in by 6am, out by10pm. I enjoyed the video stay safe , good luck, and keep the videos coming!💯

      Mr Solo Black, thanks for your comment. I agree with what you say, it depends entirely how comfortable you want to be when you get to your destination and that is a personal choice. Anyone can be uncomfortable, it’s all a balance. Take care mate and keep riding.

      You are so right. Negative comments are part of the parcel. Someone once told me you will always have your armchair critics. If you don’t, your not doing it right! Thank you very much for taking the time to comment and the sub, I appreciate it. Take care.

    This is a really good point i have not give to much attention before i hear you mention it now... the time we spend in camp, why would you even think about underspending on the comfort gear when camping? Great point and good to see how you use your equipment as well. Love the tarp tip.... Hope you are doing well mate. This video was really good, and informative. Cheers

      @@GreenString Haha, it is sometimes like that. And i just think that there is a common interest to see how other riders pack their camping gear, see if there is any good tips or products you should add or remove. You never know 😊If you need any information or tips about Norway, you know where to find me mate 👏🏻

      Hi, funny you should say that. Due to the current, uncertain, situation I have decided to postpone Norway until 2021. Shame as I have spent months planning the tour! Take care.

      Did a solo trip upto the North Cape from Berlin back in 2019 on my GS, time to go back up again. Nudge if you are interested in teaming up for 2021. You from the Gütersloh / Verl area (know it very well from days in Mansergh Bks.).

      Hi Russ, understood mate. Just keeping an eye on the whole covid thing (as we all are) I remain optimistic that we will get a green light this year. I will contact you via these means in a couple of months as we have obviously no fixed dates for this year.... Yet😁

      Have a look at these :www.lomo.co.uk/acatalog/Motorcycle-Adventure-Pannier-Dry-Bags-Medium.html
      I use Lomo side bags (6 ltr) and for the price they are very good. There are loads of reviews on youtube. I believe they use an African Twin as a demo on the Lomo website so it will give you a good idea how the look on your bike. If you fancy something a bit more expensive check out Enduristan. Take care buddy and stay safe.

      Thanks for the Sub. I just popped over to your channel and was looking at your back catalogue. It was great to see some footage of my old stomping ground. I consider myself a son of lincoln. I grew up in a small village on the outskirts called Swinderby, had my first pint in the Witch & Wardrobe ( not sure if it still exists) wondered into the Army recruiting office in Lincoln ( don’t think it’s up the hill anymore) and never came home 😢. I do however still wear an Imp patch on my motorcycle jacket 😂 to this day. Anyway enough waffle, stay safe brother and keep riding.

      Point taken. A 50 inch TV is a bit of an exaggeration, I only carry a 45 inch.😁. Tell me, what kit do you carry?
