Busy day at work. I had enough. Need to break from it all and relax properly for one night. #camping #motocamping #ASMR #silentvlog #solocamping #royalenfield #interceptor650
I'm impressed all that gear can get hung on the bike. When I solo on my Interceptor the word remote refers to the one, I use to change the channel at the Motel Tv. When I do a tent trip.... I have a Classic 500 Bullet and Cozy sidecar. .. 3 man tent, air mattress, air pump, sleeping bag, pillows (2), lantern, chairs (2) clothes, large plastic ground cloth, (2).... small stove (gas), and more... local trips and 1300-mile round trips. I enjoy solo time.. solo trips on the Interceptor... but not tent camping. I use a tank bag, saddle bags.... (panniers Carvins) and hit the road. Keep giving everyone the inspiration to get out and enjoy their backyard. 😎
Thanks, buddy, I will! I was just thinking I need to go for a trip again, just waiting for the weather to settle a little bit. It has been one storm after another, not great for tent camping... On the amount of gear. I try really really hard to travel light on this one night trips. But still come overpacked but under equipped, if you know what I mean... )) Good joke on the remote :)))
It was a warm night, may be one of the last ones this year Mist made the tent so wet, I had to dry it for a day which took all the space in the living room
Each to his own and all that but even if it incorporates a mat and bag, that is one big lump! Many have said the bag isn't up to much either and the mat is on the thin side. Did you ride off without your backpack😂. The size of the Wingman along with the size of your backpack was a lot to carry for one night away. No spare clothes, washing gear etc either. Looked fun though. Good luck to you.
Yes you could add panniers. The point I was making is that you were carrying an awful lot of bulk for one night away. But as I said, each to his own. I've been moto camping for over 45years and have have teied just about every system. Started off in 1976 on a Suzuki GT500 with a crappy thin sleeping bag and an industrial size thick dustbin bag😂. We'd pull up just out of the town we were visiting, hop over a gate into a farmers field or whatever, roll out the sleeping bag and pop it into the dustbin bag. Did get clammy and a fair bit of condensation though🤣. But we were young, hard and didn't need the comfort I do now😢. Then in the morning it was just roll it up, back on the bikes and into town for a lovely big fry up and mug of tea somewhere. Bloody hell, those were the days🤣
@@thesundayridesMeanwhile, I want to challenge myself and go at least once ever! By the way, I wonder if it would be better to include "Interceptor 650" in the video title. It might improve visibility especially if someone is searching for an Interceptor video or an Interceptor camping video.
@@twowheeledparadox hahahaha! Do it, man! Go glamping if you don’t want to deal with the tent and carry stuff! That’s super cool too Yeah, thanks for the tip, let’s try now!
That tent is very large because of the little space it provides, I have one that occupies the same size as the folding chair and has a capacity of two people inside.
So cool, you’re living the dream! As a french guy, I saw you have good taste in cheese 😀 I love that tent too, the down side is the place and weight but the looks is awesome. (Lonerider makes compact one that are interesting).
Haha I love cheese and I need to do a cheese trip in France! What are the cheese destinations? Like small villages that are famous and produce cheese? Yeah, lonerider makes awesome kit, but I like the vide of Wingman
Nice to see the videos . That tent looks awful to use,get out of a d pack away. But it has confirmed to me not to get one 😂. I am guessing your quite new to camping 🤔
Hi David! Thanks! Well, I wouldn’t say it is aweful. Quite the opposite. But it is not for everyone, that’s for sure. I like that is all in one system and for a newbie camper who camps once in a life time - ideal
@maxkumskoy that's a fair comment, I looked at lot at getting one too. I like the idea of an all in one system too. But for more than 1 night at a time. Not being able to cook under it or get dressed easily I think it would grind on me after a while. I am glad you mounted it to the bike the right way also,wouldn't fancy it falling on me in the night. But keep up the good work and videos coming 👏
@@davidrawlings3460 thanks David! All valid points - this tent won’t work for a serious camping adventure. Getting in and out is difficult and taking pants off(don’t even mind changing) is extremely effective fitness exercise. But for a single night ‘alone’ experience - is perfect! Exactly how I imagined it. First I put the tent on the left side of the bike, and then I had the same thought about it falling over me. So I changed sides. But now I am thinking that it is less like the bike to fall to the left because the kick stand is there, but if someone intentionally hit it it may fall to the right. This system is not for the faint hearted adventurers! Thanks for your compliments! Will do my best with the channel!
I just discovered your channel looking for the Interceptor 650 and what people experience with it. you just seem to have recently upgraded from another bike. I like the style of your bike, wouldn't have thought i like the blue so much on it, also the brown color is matching nicely, suits your over all style pretty good. My first thought on the tent was its pretty oversized for travelling with a motorcycle when packed up but then i saw its strong canvas and read its an 3 in 1 with mattress and blanket built in, so its actually pretty good and easy to use. Man, i constantly think about going for a camping trip with my bike and you do what i just keep imagining. Ive got a 22 years old bmw r1150r, comfortable for long day trips and equipped with two strong plastic cases on the side. Looking forward to see more of your videos. Subscribed.
Hi Tobi! Thanks for watching and subscribing! You are right, recently upgraded from another bike and have been enjoying the interceptor since then! Wonderful machine. The tent is very well built, I spent only two nights in it but the experience was enjoyable. If you accept that it is small, you start enjoying it! I know exactly what you are talking about regarding travelling 👌I had the same hesitation. But then just woke up and went for it. I was surprised how many options google maps suggested when I searched for wild camping near me! Having like minded buddies help to get out there.. but solo trips are just such a special experience. I am thinking about my next solo trip! Best regards Max
@@AliasMrHackenbacker thanks a lot for your compliment! I was surprised to see how many campsites are around here. Unfortunately, it seems that some of them close in October/November. I hope I can still find one for another trip. And my dream is to go to Dartmoor for wild camping experience. P.s. you can toggle on the subtitles. it is mostly nonsense though. I just share some things and comment what’s going on:)
@@Tobi-cz6yq thanks Tobi! Silence is what I like about these trips the most. I did a few trips with friends and I appreciate the company and interesting conversations, but solo trips are special. Can’t wait for the next one!
Really enjoyed the video I did 4700 miles (around 7500km) on my Yamaha road star camping in august in the United States. My main issue was that bike is over 800 lbs (370kgm) which is a little heavy pulling into campsites with gravel. Plus, with over 70,000 miles on the year 2000 bike, I might need something newer and lighter. Thinking about the 650 Int
Hi! Thanks for the compliments! The luggage rack is from Tec Bike Parts. Here you are: www.tecbikeparts.com/product/luggage-rack-royal-enfield-650-interceptor-continental-gt-chrome-or-black/ Interceptor is a fantastic machine! So balanced. Every time I lock it in the garage, I can’t want to ride it again. One of my dreams is to go camping in the US. Is wild camping allowed there? Well done with that trip! Sometime spending time alone with the bike out in the nature is all that’s needed.
Great prod quality brother, keep it up and you'll be big soon. BTW which cam do you use to record yourself and the flybys, that is other than the one you mount on your helmet?
Thanks, brother! I will do my best. I found a good use for my good old Sony a7iii and a bunch of good quality lenses. And the helmet camera (actually it is mounted on the chest) - osmo action 3
@@thewolstenbeast7965 nice! I hope the bank won’t disappoint! I’ve never been to Malaysia. There must be lots of amazing destinations to ride. How are the roads? Are you looking for more on road or off road riding? P.s. I have given up on brand new bikes. I got two, and they lost so much resale value in just one year, you won’t believe it. I bought my interceptor when it was 2 years old and 1800 miles on the clock. I don’t regret it!
Thank you brother! Hard earned good life. But it still depends greatly on one’s viewing angle and if one can be happy with what they got. The rear rack is from TEC bike parts. It is a good piece of kit. Grab one while they still have a discount on it www.tecbikeparts.com/product/luggage-rack-royal-enfield-650-interceptor-continental-gt-chrome-or-black/
hey nice looking Royal! I was just wondering where your rear and front fender are from? I’m kind of going for the same kind of look with mine. Thank you so much.
Where did you buy your handlebars and did you have to change the clutch/brake and throttle cables??? Thanks in advance..........oh ..and great video mate 👍 Peace out ✌
Hey Andrew! Check out another video on the change about the handlebars (customisation part 1). I got them from Baak. They are awesome, one of the best upgrade I did. And yes, I changed both clutch and throttle cables. Some people report you can keep the originals, but I didn’t like how stretched they were all I swapped them
Really enjoyed this video buddy,I’ve seen this ‘Wingman’ tent in a few videos gotta say i quite like it even tho it’s a tad pricey ideal for a 1or2night trip! How did you get on with it? Is it comfortable?Also the little camping chair you had where would I get one? Hope to see more camping trips keep up the good work👍🏻😎
Hi John! Thanks for the feedback! It is pricy indeed, but on another hand - the quality is top-notch, very well built using proper materials. The fact that it is a 3-in-1 system somehow compensates the price. Its use is limited to sleeping only, you can't cook or even sit in it. but like you said, it was designed for 1-2 days trip and is perfect for that in my opinion. It is super easy to set it up and take it down. not more than 10 minutes. the mattress is soft, the sleeping bag is warm, and there is an awning to cover your bags, food, boots, helmet, etc. The camping chair is a cheap chair from Amazon. To be honest, I bought it for another reason and didn't use it. It was just buried in the trunk of my car until I realized it was good for camping. I am searching for good destinations to camp, not too far away from London, so there will be more camping videos coming.
There probably are other makes but I've been using a packaway table and chair for many trips now and so far(five years) I've not had any problems. The brand is Trekology. They do good air mattresses. too. Good products for the price.
lol… took me some time to figure who Sophie was!! it would be much longer behind the scenes video if Sophie wasn’t there to help with a bag of logs, a fire pit and a grill :))
Hello! I am thinking about getting them! Stylish and functional (at the right price). I haven’t spent much time on them yet, so have no idea what to get. But i need them for my trips this summer
