Greetings from Oz 🇦🇺 My wife and I have camped off our bikes for many years. Advice for your bike/s setup. Soft side panniers. Get the weight as low as you can. This will greatly improve off-road handling. All that weight up high is like a pendulum. A small tarp to thro over the bikes at night is a good idea also👍And for a couple, a 3 man tent is a must. Ours has good sized vestibule's on either side. Great for keeping riding gear(wet, smelly🤮) out of the weather, but not in the tent as such. Yes, chairs. Helinox are the standard, but $$$. Much cheaper options on Amazon, Ali Express etc. We've used cheap ones for years, and they're fine. Best of luck on your latest adventures 👍 We'll be watching from a far🇦🇺🇦🇺 PS. We use small tetraPak long life milk. Almost indestructible, and don't need refrigeration. AAAGGGHHH COFFEE !!!!

hahah thanks for all this info, really appreciate it! The Camping set up is slowly improving, we've just come back from a trip which is out next week that we've already made some improvements with and it made the world of difference!

two trips through Europe camping with a motorbike and I'd say the two most important things are the sleep system and bags. Kriega bags are amazing for being able to clip on and off the bike easily and makes packing and unpacking sooo easy. A good quality pillow, mattress and sleeping bag are also worth their weight in gold. Everything else I'd say is a luxury

Small cartons of long life milk are amazing for coffee, tea and cereal in the morning and you don’t need a fridge if you use the whole carton!

I'd get a 3 man tent as you need some space. Look at the Naturehike hiby 3 or OEX coyote 3 Lightest strongest chairs are Helinox, they are expensive but are very light. Make sure your sleeping mattress is insulated. Or use a foil blanket underneath.

I'm thinking you'd stay warmer if you bought two sleeping bags that can zip together to make a double. The body heat will definitely help. Also, an extra tarp that you can either string up over the tent like a canopy or use as a ground mat to help with damp, etc. 😊 love the videos, guys! Martha, you're doing so great.

Thank you very much! Yes, can't wait for the summer European months!

Personally I carry a cot with a tiny tent on top of it AND a dinning fly type of tarp. Cot tent, bike and equipment all fit under the tarp. Plus room for my chair. Everything is out of the rain, dew or blazing sun. OR a tipi tarp. Packs down small, can stay open on one side or fully close depending on weather and large enough for my cot, chair, equipment and for me to stand upright to get dressed. Down side to the tipi is the bike is outside.

I recommend getting a stainless steel water bottle so you can fill it with hot water .so when Mitch gets wet socks again from his school boy error 😂he can slide is wet socks over the stainless steel bottle and his wet socks will dry in minutes .

Greetings from the States. I have been camping for years off my motorcycle. There are many small things that make it so much more comfortable. As stated before, a 3 person tent for the two of you and your gear. Camp chairs and a great sleeping mattress and bag. One tip I will give you. In the States I have a lot of river crossings. Not all are successful and I sometimes get very wet. Go to Walmart's camping section. They sell camping towels for after you shower. I get one for my body and the other is to stick inside my boots when they are wet. They absorb like you won't believe. Plus they dry very quickly. I sometimes stick one in each boot for a couple of hours at night and it will almost absorb all the water out of the boot. At least 95% of it.

Weather is getting better now so lots to look forward to and drier trails. Loved the girly water depth test with that rock. £10 a night was a good buy. Can't go wrong with that tinned Mackerel. A tent with a small porch part would be useful to store the boots etc., or even keep the tent and get a small tarp from go outdoors. Don't forget to carry a spare inner tube. A small light windbreak would keep you out of the wind to put just around the front of the tent along with the tarp. Spare toilet roll is a good idea, as not all smaller sites provide it.

Also invest in some extra long sealskinz socks they aren’t cheep but will keep your feet dry, and makes putting wet boots on the next morning painless

TET can be quite hardcore. Unless you want serious enduro, try ACT (adventure country trail) in most countries. Designed for big adventure bikes so not too difficult but stunning routes still.

Get some disc locks with built in alarms, good for stopping anyone sneaking off with your bikes in the night

Hand wormers are a life saver the ones out of pound shop are good.

I run the Kriega os luggage system on my bikes, you can get bike specific bases or a generic one that secures two bags low down on the bike which helps keeping the weight and you then have space to put one on top, it’s a modular system with several different sizes and types of bags, it also give you lots of way of strapping everything on the bike and also together, I run a generic base on my Husqvarna FE 350 with two 12l side bags and an 18l on top, also got a KTM super adventure R with a specific base running two 18l side packs and a us28-40l top bag. Done lots of multi day trips in the UK on the husky and several multi week trips on the KTM, Never had water penetrate even dropping my bike on a river crossings, also it’s very easy to get to thing and you don’t have to unpack everything so you can get your cooking gear out for lunch or just the camping gear when its raining

What I'd definitely recomend is some saddlebags for splitting the luggage around. Personally I use Enduristan Blizzards- they are a bit expensive, but Ive been trough a lot of rain with them, some river crossings, and bashing on the trails with my bike falling over quite a bit on slipery mud, and nothing happened to them (also if you happen to be at the ABR festival, im pretty sure Enduristan had discounted prices for the event last year, so I'd assume it'll be the same this year). Diferent options I know of is Kreiga, Lomo, Wolfman and SW-Motech and Mosko Moto. If you are unsure of waterproofing of the saddlebags or backpacks, I think its worth getting some drybags and keeping at least your clothes in them. If you are interested in tent- the one I'd recomend is Lone Rider ADV tent- same thing though, quite expensive. Only time I had water in the tent was either condensation, or when my water bottle spilled inside. A nice tip I found in Simon and Lisa Thomas' cook book is this- when water is scarse you can use wet wipes for cleaning your cutlery etc. From few times I have camped around the couple of things I'll definitely get for myself is a seperate water container, either a folding bucket style, or a spare bladder, for cooking cleaning etc. For morning coffe- I think a good idea is to grab a italian esspesso maker, you'd have to check though if it works with a jetboil. Also when going out camping and traveling having a battery pack, or cables to start bike from the other one in your case might be a lifesaver... Dont ask me how I know 😆. I hope its helpfull in some way!

@@TheJammyGits I motorcycle camp all year round and having extra space is particularly important when it’s going to be cold or wet. A tiny tent is fine when it’s warm enough to spend most of your time in the open but even then you need to have enough room for your riding gear, crash helmet and luggage. The tiny extra weight and packed size of a good three man tent is a compromise that makes life Moto camping far more comfortable and far less tiring.

A decent tent for the amount of kit you have...check out the Vango galaxy 300. Some really good reviews for bike camping.

3 leg foldable stool instead af chairs. They are small but sturdy
