I bring a small soft cooler, pre make meals like butter chicken, jambalaya, cryovak and freeze. Freeze water bottles for my water. (Keeps food frozen longer with no melting ice in cooler) Gives me about 3 days of real food that slowly thaws. Can also just heat them like boil in the bag. Takes up less space than pantry freeze dried meals and there is no clean up

That is a really cool idea. I might try that this summer for my outbound meals and then I just cook when we start the actual trip. Thank you so much for the suggestions.

For cooking, I would recommend using freeze dried food. If you are going to use fresh food prep it before you leave on your trip. You can save a lot of space and weight.

Steve, thank you very much for the suggestion. I think if I was planning on packing all my food or planned on going WAY off the grid, I would probably go the way you mentioned. For the type of trips I have planned this year and probably next, I can do my shopping in the towns and villages we are passing through as we get gas and such. My goal is to get good enough at this that when we are traveling through CA in a couple of years, I can make my own food all along the way using local veggies and protein. I think that would be a ton of fun and bring me closer to the culture all the way through. This weekend I will be shooting at course in northern VA and will probably pack along some freeze dried stuff just in case so I will let you know how that goes.

Having a comfortable sleep is important. I use a helinox cot. It weighs less than a sleeping pad (1lb) packs smaller than my sleeping pad, longer but slimmer. Its much more comfortable. Down side is it cost $400 but have been using it for years.

I’ve been surprised how many carry a traditional first aid kit (band aids and insect spray) but don’t carry a trauma kit (tourniquet and quick clot) on off road, remote rides where it literally could save a life. This seems like a no brainer to me for the safety of yourself and your friends while being relatively cheap in the motorcycle gear arena.

Another suggestion, I noticed that you have a lot of "oh its small and useful gear, so why not" - gear. That quickly adds up! I'd lay out everything on the floor and remove all the "maybe items" from the list. Why? Because all these items combined will significantly add to your packing/unpacking routine every morning/night (multiply this by the X nights your trip is). It gets harder and harder to pack every day as stuff gets messy, dirty, you get tired of neatly packing it and then it starts to get super annoying. It's especially difficult if you pack your bags to the brim, the logistics of putting everything together every morning will become the worst part of your day.

@BeGoneForGood 3 жыл бұрын

I will tell you, I saw this message before the trip and even though I didn't write back to you, I did take the message to heart. I went bare bones on this trip and left most of the "small, maybe" items at home. I didn't miss it at all and was really satisfied with how I packed. There will be more to come when I put out the final movie. It should be coming soon.

@andrifsig 3 жыл бұрын

@@BeGoneForGood it could also be that you are missing the adapter you put between the stove and the pan. Raises it from the flame so it distributes the heat better on the pan. Placing the pan directly on the stove will just concentrate all the heat in the center of the pan and everything will burn there. You will still need to keep a close eye on the heat but it will be much easier. I use the adapter also with the skillet which is a better pan in my opinion.
