I pack the poles to my tent and the fabric separately. I pack the fabric inside a small compression bag. It's surprising how much space you gain this way.
Enjoyed that, will have to catch up to see this set up in use. A small tent is good until it rains for a whole day and you're stuck or you can't kneel to pee in the night (always have a comfort bottle) and have to flip and flop like a fish to get dressed! Have two tents, one small and one bigger depending on whether you're moving on every day or staying for a couple of days
I know, it's comfy and convenient. And often not much more expensive but... Sometimes it's better to be closer to the nature. Same principle as being in a car is comfier than on a bike but...
Wujek, powiedz mi jedna rzecz, czy na promie są pasy do zabezpieczenia motocykla. Domniemywam, ze są ale lepiej się upewnić. Z góry dziękuje i pozdrawiam .
@@UncleLongbeard sub leci. Generalnie zamierzam w tym sezonie nieco pokampować na Moto. Moje motovlogi jeszcze nie mają jakiejś super jakości. Ale intensywnie nad tym pracuję...
I have the same tent, first used when bicycle camping, and now moto camping. I love it. Other compact/light gear that hikers and bicycle campers use are worth examining. I love that I can take my chair on the moto - very lux.
Luckily I also do a lot of lightweight long distance walking. Durston x mid tent (1.2 kg), Exped down mat (800g) down winter sleeping bag (1kg) and a selection of gas, petrol and alcohol stoves. Then there is plastic spork, collapsible mug, etc etc. When you need to carry it on your back you want it lightweight and very compact. It all crosses over for the bike and weighs hardly anything but I do love my vango force 10 Mk3 canvas tent for a bit of luxury for a bike.
Yep, it all crosses over but it's more about the size than the weight on a bike, so I wasn't looking for something even lighter as it comes at an expense. The balance was the key. But it's great to be able to use your gear for both if you are into hiking. I bet your equipment is much better than what I got and I have no doubts that you can easily buy something lighter and even smaller, but as I'm not a hardcore camping fan - I would rather keep my expenses down to earth ;) Also, the lighter gear is even more fragile, hence my choice here. Thanks for the comment mate, much appreciated.
@@UncleLongbeard Depends how big the bike is though. A 20hp 350 needs both lightweight and compact , especially as I weigh half the weight of the bike :). Compression sacks are very handy and the sil nylon ones will keep your gear dry too.
yo Uncle, it would be a treat for us if you fixed up the BSA really tight and toured with it a little, not too far, not too close, overnight camping etc.
That was the plan since the beginning... But in the meantime I've got too many bikes to sort and not enough space and millions of other issues at home... But eventually I'll do that 🤪
