    Thank you, Rob and Jett, for sharing your motorcycle camping journeys with us.
    My very first time motorcycle camping! I rode my Royal Enfield Himalayan out to Payne Lake campground in the Oakmulgee region of Talladega National Forest. It stormed pretty heavy during the night, but everything turned out ok. Beautiful campground with excellent amenities.

    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.

    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!

I'm going to try very hard to make that trip. It's a 700 mile round trip for me.

    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

    • @advmike
      @advmike  Před rokem

      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. 😁

  • @Hogdriver88
    @Hogdriver88 Před 10 měsíci +1

    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?

    • @advmike
      @advmike  Před 10 měsíci +1

      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.
