EPISODE 004: Packing for Motorcycle Adventure

Packing for Motorcycle Adventure

Packing for motorcycle adventures and what you bring will obviously be determined by the length of your adventure, regional climate, season, personal preferences, etc.  For example, what you wear or pack for the Nevada Backcountry Discovery Route in fall, will differ from what you might wear in the summer.

Regardless, some things you just shouldn’t go without.  We discuss 9 of our must-have items over the next two podcasts.

Keeping it Light 

When packing for motorcycle adventure, great consideration must always be given to the weight of your gear.  An overabundance of heavy gear or luxury items could make evenings  in camp more enjoyable.  However, there will be a trade-off in terms of the unsprung weight your bike is forced to carry.  Unnecessary weight will compromise your machine’s handling & might make for an uncomfortable ride.  Look to strike a balance between comfort & the performance of your bike by sourcing lightweight options like this tent, which we discuss during the podcast.
