[ATTACH]SANY0980.jpg[/ATTACH]SANY0981.jpgI know some members here like to camp. If you have any Pic's of your camp will you post them and talk about your camp site and gear. I use a (Motorvation) Trailer to haul my stuff. Will try to post Pic's if it works My camp is the Nomad and Old Dog has the Vaq.

When I have gone tent camping on the motorcycle, I used a tent, sleeping bag,
flashlight and bug spray. Oh and the usual stuff you would bring for toiletries and and a change of clothes.

Taking a trip to Colorado in June this year. We are camping every other night. Probably going to need a longer list of items than this

We all do things differently, when I go on a motorcycle I bring 'enough'. It's mostly about the riding for me. The camp site and a change of clothes is all I really need. there are laundry machines everywhere if needed. If the wife wished to go? I would use the station wagon...

I love to camp on my Nomad and have traveled cross country doing so. There's no way I could afford to take a 3 week trip and stay in hotels. I usually try to find a KOA about every 5th or 6th day since they have laundry facilities, a pool and hot tub. They always let me and my riding buddies share sites too. I pull a Timeout Camper and absolutely love it.

I like you're style mate.

What size trailer's are you bloke's allowed to tow,we English are restricted to 3ft 2in wide and 8ft 2in long from the back wheel spindle, and a maximum of 330lbs.

wolf1 Thanks for posting pic's of your outfit. My friend with the VAQ now has a Timeout Camper and he likes his too. Also like the color of your bike never seen one that color before.

We don't have any restrictions on trailer size for towing behind a motorcycle. The Timeout claims the lowest tongue weight which is the biggest concern. I think the tongue weight is something like 20 lbs.
