You Take WHAT on Your Motorcycle?!?
A Breakdown of My Motorcycle Camping Gear
Here's a simple list and short reviews of everything I carry on my motorcycle for long term travel. Some gear is from Walmart but most of my gear is high quality because I don't want it to fail at a bad time or buy it every year. I'll break it down into motorcycle specific, clothes, and camp use specific. Click the blue names for product websites.
Sleeping Gear:
- ENO Singlenest Hammock - It was my first hammock and I've seen no need to buy another.
- ENO Helios Straps - My second set of straps. I love the whoopie sling design.
- ENO Bugnet - It's never failed to protect me and it hasn't ripped yet.
- Enlightened Equipment Revelation Quilt - A lot of research went into this purchase and I have 0 regrets. American based company, great owner, great customer service, great prices, and a quality product.
- HMG Cuben Fiber Tarp 8'x10' - It's expensive but it keeps me dry no matter how long I get rained on.
- NeoAir Xtherm Pad - It's so warm I gave myself a heat rash in 50+ weather. It crinkles but it works well.
- Bundle of 550 paracord.
- 2 kinds of stakes (6 in total) - MSR Blizzard and MSR something else that's skinny for rocky ground.
Food Gear:
- Bear Bowl - Has limitations but it works for me and it's compact.
- Cheap Amazon Stove - It was a gift, it works, it has a hot spot but I work around it.
- Titanium and Bamboo Utensils - These were gifts from friends so I don't know the links.
- Gallon and quart Ziploc bags - EVERYTHING goes in these.
- 25' of tin foil folded - $1, packs small and is handy.
- Cutting board - $1 at Walmart, can be plate or used to filet a fish.
- Cascade Wild camping table - Lightweight and worth the space. Fantastic retired couple make them here in the US.
