"Stealth" Motocamping on Private Property + Testing My Smallest Motorcycle Camping Kit
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 09. 2024
- Not long ago I discovered a semi-abandoned campsite complete with firepit and a big pile of firewood on some private property. I've been wanting to go stealth motocamping there for a while now, and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to test out the compact motorcycle camping gear kit from this video: • Can I Fit An Entire Mo...
So, along with my buddy Ducfan, we loaded up our dual sport motorcycles and headed off on a stealth camping adventure. Join us as we motorcycle camp, make drinks with a breast milk container (why, Ducfan?), and enjoy the ultralight motorcycle camping kit put together by our friend @MotoCampNerd

3 minutes in, I think I just figured out who owns the property, it's your property, and you should go up there more often.
I have no idea what you mean...
Also - don’t let the people who gave you **** about the bushcraft shelter get to you… They suck, and we’re just big kids at heart. Don’t let the negativity influence you. I loved it, thought it was fun, and it’s YOUR property. Enjoy the ride.
A "Getting Caught" gag scene at the end would have been hilarious
By myself? 😂
@@DorkintheRoad Could suddenly realized you are the owner and chased your buddy away :D
@@jace4817 lol that would be funny
@@DorkintheRoad Yeah! you know the camera magic where you somehow have 2 of you arguing and chasing yourself off.
💥💥💥
I see Chewie, I give a thumbs up. Damn man, living the dream, that’s a beautiful piece of property.
I think I figured out who the nerd is, but waiting to the end to see if my deductive skillz are as good as my bike jumping skillz
I’m 💭 thinking the same !
Hummm does he drive motorcycles
Lol
Like the Star Wars shirt while you're camping on Endor
I figured out your gag when you said the nerds wife digs you! 😅 Then Chewie showing up eliminated all doubt! The place is so nice that it looks like a movie set.
re: tent site selection, once you lay out your ground sheet, lay down on it before putting up the tent, to see if you'll be comfy
Great idea. Learn something new everyday
With all those trees around, a hammock wouldn't have been a bad choice..🤔
Great seeing Duckfan! I think it might be time to revisit the bushcraft campsite. Excellent video!
Classic Dork adventure! This is why I started watching your channel.
Woulda been funny to see a note reading, "Steve Wallis was here"
Gonna be checking out some of that gear. Also the gag worked pretty good, was cheesy fun.
Ducfan the man! Pretty sure he and I have the same watch. Awesome smartwatch that you don't need to charge every 36 hours lol. Excellent bro!
Ha ha ha ha! “I’ve made due with three and a half inches most of my life” (19:20)
was waiting for someone to catch that one ;)
Dang dude, what’s your secret? Hopefully I can get there someday!😢
The most useful video I watched from moto camp nerd is when he showcased all the sleeping bags that he has to offer , and sets them out side by side to show the different sizes in comparison to one another, and explains the differences. And he also showed how each one fit inside of his panniers. That was a very useful video. I wish you guys would do an updated version of that for the tents, sleeping pads, and if there are any new sleeping bags. It really helps people determine how much space they will be taking up on their bike, and makes the choices a bit easier.
"What kind of weird dude has a pug for a pet and takes him camping" 😁✋ ...Chewy blew your cover because he smelled the Brat's, 😂
I was waiting for you to say "and we brought fireworks!"
😂 "Stealth 450 camping"
So jealous of that land! What a great spot to do shakedown runs
You had me going for a while on the "private property". Consider yourself fortunate to have 13 acres of beauty to utilize as you see fit. I rather enjoyed the bushcraft videos as it lends itself to the self-reliant vibe of adventure riding.
Simply the best camp packing video ever. Watched it 3 times. Keep them coming.
If I hadn’t watched your videos I would had never figured it out 😂
Got the joke. No explanation needed. Love your "tubes" Dork 👍👍
Run the Tyvek ground sheet through 2-3 cycles of your washing machine, cold water, no soap/detergent. It will become soft and almost silent.
And, sorry I didn’t mention it, you won’t lose any of the durability of the sheet. It will pack smaller, too.
Alternative Minimalist Setup:
1. Paria Outdoors Bryce 1P Tent (3lbs 13oz) $160 (comes with footprint, rainfly, stakes, poles, and seam sealed)
2. Paria Outdoors Thermodown 15 Down Quilt $180
3. Tiny Pump 2x $40 (higher air pressure and has a light!)
4. REI Helix Sleeping Pad $169 (I've seen it on sale as low as $120, wait for sale)
5. Teton Gear Camp Pillow $25
6. Stanley Adventure Nesting 2-cup Cookset $25
7. SOTO Amicus Stove $46 or BSR3000t $17
8. Rhinowalk 30L Tailbag $90 or 15L/$80
Total $735 or $671 with lower cost items (less if the Helix is bought on sale). 8% sales tax on larger total = $58.80. GRAND TOTAL = $793.80. And all of it is good quality gear. Ben is great, MotoCampNerd is great, but so is a savings of $444.75.
Hello from Australia! A lot of the camping gear I own, I bought after seeing you use it - I consider you my personal camping gear vetter. But I've been using a flextail inflator for about 18 months now that I got off of one of their early kickstarters; it's great, it blows up my sleeping pad, and has an integrated light that's perfect for inside the tent. I see they've started coming out with Thermacell style insect repellers, too. Great little company.
Haha. You had me until Chewy showed up 😮
KLX300... excellent! Ultralight moto camping... excellent! I like to use my hammock as a camp chair to save that weight and packed bulk. Instead of a table, I carry a poly mailer with the bottom cut open. I unfold it and place it gray side down on the ground and use the white top side to organize my cooking stuff. Ultralight FTW! That tent, sleeping pad and quilt look very nice!
18:23 Did I hear a vehicle while you setting up your tent? Yes I did. 😊 an nothing better than 19:53 to wake up to a Dork video an drinking coffee with you here in Idaho. 😊😊
Dork, thanks for making these videos and allowing us to live vicariously through you. I feel like I’m camping right next to you when I watch these vids.
Red eye was my grandma’s favorite way to drink beer, thanks for the memories.😊
Great video. I’m with Duck Fan, those red beers are the best ever. You have no self control drinking them.
Great looking property too. Thank you for sharing.
Hey Ben, that was pretty good, wonderful property really cool and having the rental dog named chewy was awesome. The gear was awesome. It looked like duck fan had a lot of fun. Thanks. Looking forward to the next video.
Ok, so ya gots me. Haha. Soo funny, woo....
I’m excited to hear that DorkintheRoad will be on a TallManMoto livestream.
Ducfan!!!!! That's my favorite Dork character!
You had me going so your trick worked. I have to have a free standing tent, but I am impressed by your new setup.
To quote Bill Murray, "I wanna party with you, cowboy!" Nicely done!
One (tiny) trick I learned for multiday camp:
roll tent up in tyvek, essentially a tent burrito. Seems to take up less space, and slightly quicker!
Have very much been missing the camping vids!
On a side note, I like the little hobo heaven you built. I was expecting more vids on it as well.
Glad to see some camping. looks like a great spot.
This was really fun. You gave us a few clues, but I wasn't sure until Chewy, the "wild dog of the North" showed up and took over the campsite....
Chewie is adorable! I have a 2 year old pug named Elvis Pugsly, cant wait to get him motorcycle trained ❤
1. I am incredibly slow on the uptake. It took me until about minute 10 to clock. Tbh I'm impressed with myself I didn't leave a sanctimonious comment before I got it. 😂
2. I like how yer mate camps. I drink those occasionally too, only slightly less posh (mine are just ice, tommy juice, cheap cooking lager and I use Henderson's relish as it has more boot than worcestershire sauce.)
Very fun vid. I didn't know it was your property until 40% through the vid. I Love Bushcraft stuff! I'll have to find that video.
Nice property, and awesome camp spot! The humor was not lost either With those trees you could set a hammock or hanging tent easily. I myself am looking for a compact elevated tent to try out, something like a Tentsile, or an Amok Draumr system. But it comes down to pack size to fit on my DRZ that I am most concerned about. Great video nonetheless.
Yeah I've been meaning to try out the Haven tent forever but it just hasn't come together.
Let’s see, I know that I’m trespassing, so I’ll sneak in on a motorcycle. That’s quieter than if I walked in, or parachuted in. Yeah!
Half Vast Flying
Literally ate a package of the Johnsonville jalapeno cheese brats by myself every week for the last year and a half while living in Texas. Most of the time, cut up and cooked in Bushes Baked Beans. I did not die from that diet.
they're so good
Nice you know the owner! And bonus the owners wife is into you! Great video!
oh man she's SO into me
@@DorkintheRoad #luckyman #whowouldntbe?
Lol, I caught on by "That nerd who owns this" :)
Making a Bloody Mary, except substituting vodka for beer. It can’t be better than a traditional Bloody Mary, but, whatever floats your boat.
Love it, you can’t beat a bit of random shit, I do it all the time. Another great video, keep them coming. However you guys need to pronounce Worcestershire sauce correctly, say it like this Wooster Shire 😂😂😂Ride safe guys 👍🏻
I want to see more of the property...first hand. How about a campus for your internet friends?
You had me going up until your doggo showed up, freaking hilarious. Good video, Very surprised to see how it small it packed in.
On your Flex tail the battery has a type-c plug so you can charge it
Yes @motocampnerd pointed that out. I edited it but it takes a bit to process the new version.
I enjoyed the "secret stealth camping " on your own property but presenting it as some old grumpy man's private spot. Fun!
well done! You totally had me... for like 2 minutes... but it was still worth it :)
This is the content I subscribed for long ago! Glad you guys had fun. That property owner is a dork in the forest.
We solved the problem, we pay to camp. We removed the original signs, and replaced them with Private Property, all adventure motorcycles and camping must be lodged with Property Owner, medical emergency details & payment $45 registration.
You should do a meet and great . I think you live in my town. It would be cool to meet you in person.
I'm sorry to hear everyone hated on the bushcraft shelter. As an eagle scout, I love that kind of stuff! It would be great to see that developed
I, for one, did enjoy the bush camp videos.
Not gonna lie, I was almost put off at the beginning of the video, but figured something was up because you just don't seem like "that guy." It was the "no a$$ing" sign that gave it away for me. Nicely done sir. 😂 and a beautiful spot. I bet the Dork that owns it is a pretty cool guy. 😎
Sweet location dude, the fern covered forest floor is awesome! They call those tomato juice/beer combos Redraws in Texas where I went to college, girls like them because it dilutes the taste of the beer, and they don't get as tipsy and end up going home with some Dork. Thanks!
I liked it, pressed like too. It was pretty obvious though. As to what I learned to know about you watching your channel for years, I do not think you would break a pretty obvious no tresspass sign. But when you started to unpack and throw things around you it was pretty obvious this was not a real stealth camping as one would be more organized to be able to haul out of there quickly.
Good show. And I would like to see more from this place.
Also like bushcraft.
Cheers from a Swede in Mexico
When will we see your old camping buddy tim again?
Dude went and got a real job so I'm not sure.
Ben you need Rogue to sponsor you so you can have tastier camp beers!...great vid, Chewy for the win
I absolutely love the hints .grate job
Awesome spot to camp and just get away from the house for a night. I’m a little Jealous.
Loved it Ben, Chewy had a great cameo 👍
20:39 I camp in a graveyard once it was the dead centre of were I was staying .
Well you are a really lucky bunny to have that space around your home and I wish I could have similar jealous but hey ho great vid alas I camp kitchen sink and all but I base camp and at my age comfort is king all the best 👍👍👍
You can’ grill the over the jet boil stove fire.
I like the spot, also I get the bush craft camp. I live in the treeless flatland in the Texas Panhandle
Are there any cool events you are planning or going to and do a Dork meet up! One Dork to another😂
I love the pedantic efforts to properly uber pedantic classify the gear set as “minimalist ” or whatever the other sub classifications classifying classes were…
Grace. Must love this
@13:45 Can see that Duckfan knows cigars by properly preparing it for lightning.
Too bad he knows how to ruin a Bloody Mary.
That Table tipping @17:56 gave me anxiety, I once tipped boiling water over onto my arms while using a pocket rocket.
I've done that before myself (on camera, no less) which is why I moved it ;)
Super fun vid...Thanks!
forget the rest of the video. you had my attention at "CRF 300L suspension"!! I want to hear about that!! My CRF 300L is also in the shop for a full RallyRaid front and rear Level 1..
seeing as you've had a CB500X for so long, i hope you get your hands on an NX500 in the near future. I'd love to hear your opinion on the bike.
welcome on dryer trick
looking at a 4 man tent NTK COLORADO GT
One more reason to keep the original exhausts on the XR150L and the RE Himilayan!
Can you check how it is to camp with hammock?
Hey Ben,
Can you post the coordinates to that awesome stealth camping site?
I imagine there are THOUSANDS of us watching this video who’d love to stealth camp there. We promise not to tell the owner.🤣
oh for sure.
Nothing keeps a stealth spot nice and clean like sharing it with thousands of people on the Internet ;)
I wonder how many people would actually show up
@@DorkintheRoad if you had people pay for the coordinates to some state land somewhere for a weekend camp out. I would expect you would do rather well. Plus another show.
@StephenKeller-ey9gm at least one.... me
No mosquitoes?
After the cooler I was waiting for the to save space I'm sleeping in a bivy bag with no sleeping bag lol..
He tried that once (by mistake). Now he's very paranoid about being warm enough at night ;)
@@DorkintheRoad My first solo trip I camped at the foot of the largest mountain in the state temps dropped from high 70's to low 30's Lesson learned.. I always take extra warmth.. You really should try an Xmid-2 instead of that tent It packs the same but is I think a 9ft footprint.. If you dont have the bug netting in it its huge...
Brilliant
This was a great video, internet riding buddy.
A vote for DaBushyDork channel...👍👍
I was totally put off by the title. I’m like “The Dork” is not that guy.
Apparently, you saw me coming. lol
My fire pit has been waiting for weeks for a chance to burn but cant do anything till we get some more rain i have way too much wood and not enough opportunity to burn it all
I wasn't gonna like and comment but CHEWIE!!
I suspected might be yours until Chewy came...puppies
A true Oregonian!
Is duck fans tent a ALPS Mountaineering Lynx 1?
Your videos recently almost sound like you're doing a voice-over because there is no background noise. Are you running the audio through a filter or have a new mic? I like it
I had to enhance the speech in premiere because my mic gain was too low. I think I have that cleared up now. We'll see.
Some Dork should pay more attention to his property.. 😅
