    Just this morning, I was camping alone, and as I sat to have breakfast, a family of porcupines walk up to me and start begging. As I shared, and made more breakfast, I realized that when you’re camping alone, you’re never alone. You had some nice visitors too. Thank you, and be well.

    BTW you are also an inspirational woman for man riders. Men often come to riding with baggage- we are taught that things men do are supposed to be risky, and if it isn't risky, we are shirking our manly duty. So even though motorcycling is clearly risky, a lot of us feel compelled to add risk, add drama. We act like it is a big deal and it takes extraordinary strength or skill to ride. We dismiss little bikes and go right for the big ones, even though they have serious drawbacks limiting the fun.
    All this drama scares a lot of people, women and men both, away from riding. Your videos show us the truth. The truth is that if you focus on the right skills, an practice frequently and carefully, you can be reasonably safe on the road pretty soon. And it is AWESOME!
    You model sanity, an easygoing, joyful attitude, careful planning, intelligent decisionmaking, and how gravel doesn't have to be a big deal. I am convinced there would be many more riders, including men, if they felt the permission to approach it the way you do.

    • @wilsjane
      @wilsjane 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      The big mistake that a few of my younger biker friends have made is thinking that the icing on the cake is blonde trophy girlfriend with big boobs wearing a short skirt and heels that she cannot cross the road wearing.
      When they meet my wife and she cooks a stir fry with a steak or lamb chops, rather than run to McDonalds they soon see the error of their ways. If they are still not convinced, an evening discussing her enjoyment of outdoor life and her love of animals soon shows them that a like minded partner is what they really need in their lives, rather than a shallow minded bimbo who cannot think beyond the colour of her nail polish.
      It is a very common mistake in life and the price is often a very lonely existence, particularly when the blonde hair goes grey and the boobs start to sag.

    You're camping in a camp ground, not in the back woods. Anyone that would criticize you for buying wood needs to get a life. This is not a bushcrafting video. lol I bought a camping hammock similar yours for my bugout bag and I have yet to use it! You've motivated me to find an excuse to just go somewhere and try it out. Life always gives you an excuse to not do certain things. Time to put my foot down. Thanks for your inspiring videos.

    In the nineties when my son was small and had no choice in it :) he would get out of school on Friday and I would pick him up on the bike and we would flip a coin and headed some direction not sure which direction but we would just go well he's 31 now he still flips a coin head that direction and just goes with it.
    Good thing I was a girl scout.
    I showed him how to fish make traps traps cook squirrel or rabbit forrage use the land to your advantage build a shelter start a fire "naturally".
    I'm 51 still wild still love to go biking and camping.

    Great video! I’m 53 now, but started camping alone on two wheels as a teenager in high school. One aspect I really enjoy about it, is that feeling of self reliance, autonomy, and independence that I feel during those times. One way i up it to another level, is to find good boondocking locations, where I can go
    Repetivily. This really adds to my pleasure, and gives me a feeling of getting something for nothing, and giving the middle finger to society, society’s rules, and just how expensive everything is these days. Really enjoyed your video! I feel like I got away from it all, even if, only in my head. 😆🙏

    I have a friend that has the Lawson hammock. He rolled over at about three am and ended up hanging face down on the big net. Almost couldn’t stop laughing long enough to help him out of his hammock. Best trip ever to Dolly sods, WV. Looks like you have a great night. Good job with the camera work.

    I rode for 4O plus years. Seen the sun come up over the badlands; rode Pikes Peak; rode across the Rio Grande when water levels were low; crossed the Rookie Mountains and rode the prairies of Canada; dipped my foot in the Pacific, the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic all within one week - all solo rides. It’s the freedom and the connection to nature. You’ve experienced it now and the bug has bit you. Enjoy it. I don’t ride anymore. My new “steed” is a 15 foot carbon canoe and I paddle the beauty of my Canadian lakes. Less chance of getting run off the road. Ride safe, enjoy the freedom!

    Just got off the road with 28 days of travel with about 8 days of camping mixed in with Hotels, Motels and family stays. You certainly hit this camping excursion out of the park. Yumm Steak!! and my fav brew. Thanks for hammock lesson ... Really enjoyed this!

    “You’re in a forest, why would you buy firewood?”
    There are some places here in Texas where you’re not allowed to gather firewood. Usually state parks and the like.
    Anyhow, you’ve inspired me. Once cooler weather moves back in sometime around January, I’m going to try this motocamping thing and really get in touch with all the things I dislike about the great outdoors!

      Damon Miller I actually love nature, but I also work outside/in a shop for a living. It makes my idea of enjoying time outside different, and I’m probably a little more picky about it.

      Fred Johnson Same rules in upstate New York in the Adirondack mountains. It’s called the forever wild law. You cannot cut anything down you could only use the wood that’s on the ground. It’s good to start off with Drywood. Then I start processing it.

    A quick one off, as a young carefree motorcycle enthusiast, I didn’t give any heed to hearing protection. Now as a older motorcyclist, I have tinnitus. This is a common theme amongst older motorcycle enthusiast.

    The best noise for a biker, when you arrived with the wood -air cooled engine cooling cracklng. When I arrive home from a ride just open a beer and listening to my bike's spirit how its playing music during cooling down with me.
