Show me your bike loaded with tent camping gear

[Mng2024]

This is pretty much what I carry on a two day or twenty day trip. Camping gear in the dry bag, clothing in the left pannier, tools, oil etc in the right and freeze dry/water in the top case.

I came back home after 9 fantastic days on Swedish gravel roads a few days ago. I like to share this video of the 3 first days from our trip with you. Sorry that the text in the film is in Norwegian.
Sweden is famous for a lot of open gravel roads all over the country. A great number of adventure bikers from all over Europe is travelling in Sweeden every year because of this. The other bike in the movie is a Honda Africa Twin 1000, owned and driven by my friend. This is our second trip together in Sweden.
In Sweden there are thousands of open shelters anyone can use for free, many of them also with firewood stored to make campfire. There is an app for cellphones to make it easy finding them. Some of the shelters is possible to sleep in, but we normally use our Amok Draumur hammocs with bugnets because of the moskitos. Tents is also normally possible to use close to this shelters.
Enjoy, and please ask me if you have any questions about the movie or the tour.

4000 miles round europe and bosnia in 35 degrees heat. Givi panniers and top box and a dry bag on rear seat mainly for short term food storage and the tent. Reckon i could have got rid of the top box but useful
For storing jacket or helmet if away from
Bike. Absolutely no issues other than me being a bit tight when i changed the oil shortly before leaving and needing half a litre top up half way round.

Top box has tent, chair, food and water, tool kit. Dry bag has sleeping bag, bag liner, air pad and cooking kit as well as 4 changes of clothes/toiletries. But I wear wool so theirs is 12 days of clothes there. Don’t knock if you haven’t tried it. Foam insulation pad under the dry bag. Camel Bag has water and a couple Payday candy bars.

That's some efficient packing!
Just remember to sprinkle cracker-dust all over everything before you fit it in there............

I use the cracker dust like Talcum powder, makes everything slide together and prevent chaffing....or so I'm told.

Nice little cabins. Looks like the one next to the bike has corner trim for a ridge cap. Guess it will work and is working! haha.
