I've been packing over the last few days. So, I've made a video and written a blogpost about what I carry and how I carry it. Also, this means that the #tourof2017 is going to start soon. Really looking forward to travelling again and sharing the journey with all of you. Do keep watching, liking, commenting, sharing and subscribing! Thanks, as always, for your support!

TAMIL RIDER world wide 🙏🙏
Toll Free Traveller thats a very nice and helpfull vid sir..thnx a lot fr the upload
Helpful tips braah..!! God bless you in all your journeys. Peace!
Manoj Trust thank you🙏
This is called a perfect packing for a tour.. Normally riders/vlogers don't find this important to tell their subscribers what to pack and how to... but u did a great job.. Your work is neat and clean. Hope u rock this touring season... 🤘
Thanks for the wonderful feedback, Monty. Glad to know you liked it. :)
One of the most useful videos for touring bikers! i am a solo rider myself and this video is a ton of inspirations man! loved it, thanks!
That's great to hear. Thanks, Mihir.
you are making great informative videos boss. Instead of just shooting the information and content based logs are truly useful and as a fellow rider it feels good to go through these .. keep p your good work and keep riding
Glad to know that you appreciate it, Preetam. This takes more effort but seemed like a better approach to me. Thanks for watching.
so true !
A few of my friends and i are planning a cross country trip and thank the lord i found you man. This is beyond helpful. Our bikes are oriented a little different (sport touring so not quite the same layout at the rear) but we are figuring out how to translate these to fit our bikes and it's beyond helpful. Keep it up!
Nolan Haines that's absolutely fantastic to hear. Glad to have been of help. Wish you guys the very best for your tour.
Rohit.... brother.. every video you make... u make it soo beautiful... true TRAVELLER here guys... all the best bro...
mohammed farooqui thanks a lot!🙏
It's by far the most informative video I've come across..you keep things simple and yet you manage to explain all the necessary points precisely. :) you're the most sensible Moto vlogger I've come across! and there's no doubt that you deserve more viewers.. Cheers mate :)
Thanks a lot, Anirudh.
not that I will travel or anything, but watching this person having things neatly sorted out is kinda THERAPEUTIC !
This is a total life-saver for someone who rides but hasnt done a long ride. This is very neatly and cleanly done. I have never seen someone pack with this level of calmness. :) Thanks a bunch.
Thank you, Tharun. I've also made a video earlier this year with a few more packing tips. Hope you find that one useful too.
Thanks for some great pointers on what and how to pack gear on a motorcycle.
Especially liked the following:
1. Using the tarp to protect the gear
2. The lashing method
3. Splitting the tools in two packs
And lastly...
4. The clothes clips!
Thanks bro.
Nice presentation of how to pack luggage for touring and the sunset in beginning was beautiful, thanks for a great video..loved it!
Thanks for watching, Siddharth!
Man!! This is the best packing video on youtube. You showed every important item to carry while riding for a tour and you packed everything so well that it looks so easy. Thank you so much. Keep posting stuff. You earned subscribers. Hope you get a million subscribers.
Thanks a lot, Gourav. Very kind of you
this was seriously awesome. so simple, no fancy drama, yet very informative.. loved the way you present. to the point..
Thanks, as always, Deergh!
You are the best man!! All your videos are so simple and to the point.. nothing fancy just plain and simple.. kudos to you
Thank you!
"The long way home"
Last week i came through this video. I was literally amazed by the narration and the complete flow of your journey. Just aftet that i watched all your videos in one sitting. Each and every part of all your videos is superb. Its carring lot of info and beauty.
Beside that in each video i was also trying to find the way you pack you luggage on you TB. I got a glimpse of that in your video from chennai to Ladakh, but was not able to find the proper way. At last thanks alot for posting this series of preparation. Its very helpfull.
Waiting for lot more !!!
Thanks a lot, Rishabh. I appreciate it. Do share and help the channel grow too :)
Man you're videos are rekindling my dream to travel ! I have sort of given up until i saw this channel. Keep making videos man.
That's great to hear. Thank you, Phani Harsha.

Thank you, Prakash
A neatly claw packed bike is a treat to the eyes and a thumbnail of one of your videos is what got me watching yours and I'm hooked! The way you talk is so calm and makes everything look so simple. That packing is so damn neat and systematic. So impressive :D
Hahaha. I'm a bit OCD about it. Thank you for encouraging an eccentricity :)
great man!! dont follow the world around you..just keep riding!! THEN LIFE BECOMES A GREAT STORY!!!! (waiting to get my licence to trip like this😀😀!)
Good luck. Hope you travel far and wide!
sure bro!!!
bro whats ur name
Albin Uzhuvath me too waiting on my license lol.. I'll be traveling to kalimpong.
Albin Uzhuvath what license you are talking about?
Do these long trips need some special paperwork?
The most helpful video I've seen in a long time. Thanks dude. You rock!
Great info!!! Had lots of questions /doubts in mind regarding packing for a long ride, pretty much all answered!! Awesome!! Thanks!! 😇✋
padmasinh chavan that's super. Happy to hear that.
brother...this is what it means for a perfect tourer..I like the way you explain..just simple..I would love to join you for the rides in future..the best wishes for you go with you by this upcoming ride...just keep making such videos😃
sourabh patil thank you!
Consider zip or cable ties. Helped me numerous times. Also enduristan and givi make some awesome drybags with loops. So u dont have to worry about water proofing.
Angad Singh thanks. I carry and use ties sometimes. about dry bags, they do solve the waterproofing part . why I like tarpaulin is that my bags stay really clean and the tarp takes the beating. which means when I open or close my bags, there is no muck and they don't need to be washed as often. just a personal preference
The next (or only) great channel on motor bike travels in india
Appreciate this! A lot of effort put in bringing out the right required content...Good job right from the start till the end 👌
Roshan Mcdonald thanks a lot 🙏🙏

Riding biking freedom
1000 Likes Truly Genuine Passionate Biker. The place looks very peaceful where is this.
Imran Abid thank you. outskirts of Chennai
excellent cheap good solution to keep saddle bag clean
This is just the thing new riders are looking for. Thank you for the amazing content. I've been searching for the kind of videos and information that you provide from a very long time, so much so that I thought of making them myself. Et voila, TollFreeRider to the rescue. I'm planning to do 8K km (may be more) long tour in may and THIS VIDEO IS GOLD!! Thank you so much and keep em coming :)
P.S. What's the quickest way to connect with you, just in case I need some pointers for my tour that I've planned?
That's great to hear, Nikhil. It took me a while to figure out some of these systems (trial and error), and the intention is to share these things so that others can be a hundred steps ahead (unless they already have better systems already, of course). I think the easiest way to connect is through DM on Instagram. Good luck for your tour!
Sorry for asking after years. The link is broken. Can you upload it again pls
you inspired me for leh and my next trip will be it
That's awesome. All the best!

Very clear and simple explanation, Your guides are like a Holy book of motorcycle really in love with your stuff..
Like to see the guide on camping and trye change in your future Vlogs.
Santosh N Casey is a pioneer. I have great respect for him. thanks for the encouragement!!
I have a question about managing gear while traveling.
If you are making long trips with all the gears(armoured jacket, pant, boot, helmet and gloves) how do you manage then when you are not travelling? Do you take a room in hotel keep them out and then roam around to local places or how do you manage?
If it is a one day trip and you want to take bath in falls, what do you do at that time. managing luggage at different places while travelling is difficult.
Ur a Great Inspiration Sir... :) :) for Travellers...
Thank you, Sagar!
HI, Just come through your channel from explorer, and u have amazing content. Can you please tell me that which Bag is this on your bike's backside other than the rucksack?
gr8 man! u should definitely have way more subscribers
Thank you, Mithun.
Maybe a few videos on DIY for the Bike would be appreciated,like tyre replacement, spark plug replacement, oil and filter replacement and the fuses et all
Need to work on that series. I got started but didn;t finish it. Will do so at some point.
awesome maannnn.....
its nice to see that your vlog is improving
btw good narration bro👌
The video is very helpful. It would be good if you use a handy camera so that you can show that actually you are doing , and the Travel videos are interesting and entertaining. Good work man keep going .
Thanks, Shubham.
Your videos are amazing. keep posting..
Thanks, Debanjan :)
I couldn't find any blog that you have left on description.please do help. on blog page it is written that page could not found.
Hi, so I have a few questions for you:-
1) On a Ladakh Carrier (LC), how much weight can I or should I carry?
2) Basis the weight, what would be the recommended tyre pressure? I ride classic 350 solo. Normally I maintain 20&30.
3) for shorter trips, is it ok if I put all my luggage on the top rear end of the LC (1 duffel bag)? Since I will not be carrying 2 bags to balance it out on the sides. In my last trip I used a rynox tank bag first as a tank bag n then used it on the pillion seat but didn't find it comfortable. So now thinks of putting at the end.
Hope u can help it out on this. Thanks.
Hey - the LC is pretty sturdy so weight isn't really a problem. Normal luggage should be fine. I usually keep tryes at 23 (front) and 32 (rear). Yup, for a shorter ride just one bag at the back is more than enought
Well that was informative!! Ride safe and have a great time!!
Thanks, Yash.
Excited about your upcoming trip! Ride safe and have fun Rohith :)
I'm excited too. Thank you, Manasa :)
very very nice! all the best for your tour bro.
Devendra Apte thank you
