I've just uploaded my first ASMR camping video thanks to inspiration from Rob too and now watching yours I'm super keen to get back out on the bike moto-camping again 👌🏻. It really is the best life, I enjoy the solitude of it!
Wow! Loved the video and it made me subscribe. I have a '21 Himmy and hardly ever ride my Goldwing now. I've never camped but enjoy taking my Himmy out to the National Forest (Sam Houston or Davy Crockett). I pack a lunch and drinks. After an hour or so of riding around, I'll find a nice area to stop. After spreading out a tarp, I'll have lunch and listen to some tunes on my phone and Bluetooth speaker. Just pack it all up and head home after an hour or two.
Nice moto camping video. I really like the production, music and editing. My wife's family is rooted in the area between Anniston and Gadsden and I have a fondness for the Alabama woods and water. Thanks!
That was a very relaxing and enjoyable video. It looks as if the trip was relaxing and enjoyable too. I bought a G310GS a couple of years ago for my 60th birthday with the intention to go on solo motorcycle camping trips. I've taken some very enjoyable day trips, but I'm still working up to the overnight trip. Next month!
Much appreciated! I highly encourage you to "make the leap" and go for a trip on your bike. For me, it grew my confidence and opened a whole new reason for riding. Stay safe out there!
@@advmike - I was planning a 120 mile round trip to the Daniel Boone National Forest for my first overnight motorcycle camping trip, but Moto Giant is organizing a camping trip to the Hickory Flatts Cemetery in northern Georgia in a week or two. I'm going to try very hard to make that trip. It's a 700 mile round trip for me.
@@Liberty4Ever and of course we ended up in Helen GA instead. Lucky for me I love that place.. although if we could’ve gotten the bikes to the cemetery, camping there would’ve been pretty epic as well. Hopefully we cross paths on one of Don’s (Moto Giant) outings, or on any of the other ADV adventures I end up on. 👊🏽🍺
@@advmike - I uploaded a video of my Independence Day camping trip. "Solo Motorcycle Camping In The Daniel Boone National Forest". There was a little bit of carnage. :-)
Great video. How do you like the Tourmaster gear in the rain with that removable rain Liner? I have the Alpine Trek version, haven’t gotten it wet yet… also, what is the length of that axe and where did you get it?
Thank you! 🙏 The liner held up ok but the jacket and pants stayed damp for several hours. I’ve since coated with Muc-Off water sealer and I definitely bring my over-top rain gear with me. The axe is from Harbor Freight. I think it’s a 15”. Not the best but extremely affordable. I will be upgrading to a Hultafors soon.
Your videos are really well done. I just bought a 2022 Himalayan as well. 2 questions for you Mike. What kind of boots are those? And are your jeans motorcycle jeans or just standard jeans? Thanks! Wade
Much appreciated! Congrats on your new bike! 🙌 The boots are made by Trip Machine but sadly they no longer make them. I’m probably getting a pair of Forma Boulder boots soon. I wear Tourmaster riding pants. The jeans are just jeans. 😁
Cool video ... just curious how do you like the Royal Enfield any issues with it all loaded down and traveling with it ? I know its down on power but the overall experience of owning it ...
LOVE my Himi. You're right about the power, but everything else has been phenomenal. It's an excellent platform if you're ok with a more laid back ride.
Hola mi bro me podrías obsequiar unas maletas laterales que no uses tengo una Himalayan pero acá en mi país esas maletas son un lujo muy costoso 😢 saludos y buenas rutas 😊
I think the Nelson Rigg saddle bags are the best value. My buddy Jake has some and they're really good.

Can't wait to get back out in the woods on the bike again!
all the best for your upcoming stay
A lot of thought went into the composition of the video. Mightily impressed.
Much appreciated! Hoping I get to go back out when it cools down.

He’s amazing. Definitely a whole new appreciation after trying it myself. 😳😆
Ride safe out there!
Just watched the vid. It is just so peaceful, especially if you're the only one camping at the site. What a good one!
Other than the scary thunderstorms, it was magnificent! 😆
Hope you found the peace you were searching for. Sure was a great place to find it. Thank u for sharing
🙏 much appreciated - This was a good trip. 😊

Thank you Billy! I'm hoping to get in some more National Forest rides off the pavement this season. Coffee on the mountain sounds pretty good... ;)

@@Liberty4Ever DB is on my list. Maybe next year.
So many good roads around Hickory Flatts! Richard B Russel Scenic Hwy (348) is not far from there.

@@advmike Good to know about the riding gear. Definitely not Klim, but also not Klim pricing either! Thanks for the info 👍

Hey Mike, great video. Can you tell me the name of the saddle bags you have?
Giant Loop MotoTrekk panniers. Link in the description. 😉
I did have to adjust the exhaust to make them fit.
@@advmike Thanks, I might go for a smaller option.

I own a himi as well no handling issues when it's all loaded.
I bought one too ! Great little bike.
마이크 멋지다
Thank you! (I think) 😀
Done subs ✌️🇲🇾
💗❤️😇💓💕♥️❣️💖⭐
what do you think of the himalayan?
Excellent machine! Perfect for laid back riding on and off road. As long as you're ok not going super fast, it's phenomenal.
