Motocamping in a foreign country gone wrong
#motocamping #mensmentalhealth #motocrash
Not all trips turn out as planned. Moto traveling to Canada to do some motocamping in a foreign country for my first time, and it done gone wrong.
This video see's @DorkintheRoad , @SlowEddie and myself traveling to north island BC for the 1st ever Get Lost Find Yourself event in the area of Nimpkish Canada on Vancouver Island. The event was put together by an amazing group of people including our own @Crittermoto to support mens mental health. My trip, and my 2023 riding season was cut a bit short, as was the majority of my 2024 riding season changed in ways I could not have anticipated when the trip started. Sit back and enjoy the show.

    Good video. As far as using the tools I carry on the bike to do normal maintenance, I normally use the tools in my toolkit at least once at home to make sure they are adequate for the job but for daily at home maintenance I use the tools I have in my home tool chest. They are of higher quality and cause less wear to fasteners on the bike and to the tools themselves. That's my outlook on it anyway.

    Glad you made it out of there safe! Heatstroke is no joke, you're a stud for pulling through on a big bike. Well done! I have ridden a lot out there solo and you definitely want to be prepared and in shape. I was underprepared once and "bonked" really hard about 15 miles from the hot springs campground while riding solo, crashed twice because my muscles wouldn't work, had to ditch my bike and walked (ahem, stumbled) like a zombie back. It can be very scary. SE Oregon will humble you. These aren't directed at you, nor a critique and are more for awareness/discussion. A key to any activity with exertion in the heat is not just water but water WITH ELECTROLYTES, this is so key. Electrolyte depletion can and usually does render you useless. Also taking constant little sips from your water bladder is another key, if you end up being thirsty it's too late. Constant sips. A good rule is keeping a fist full of fluid in your stomach most of the time. Not wearing black in these conditions also helps! The BDR folks would put a few alerts on the first two sections for this coming summer season. Number 1, informing people that they should leave EARLY to be well on their way before the heat starts. This is a good rule in general when you know its gonna be a hot day. Number 2, checking the Hart Mountain website for road closure notifications, they keep this very up to date. Had you guys known about this you would have known about the road closure and could have prepared for it with a reroute in advance. Hart Mountain, Steens, etc they keep the road conditions notices up to date because they don't want people getting in a jam way out there. Calling the ranger station a week or two out also helps, they have always answered or called me back. This is especially helpful for the Steens loop, because they grate the road every year (late June into July depending on the year) and if you time it right you can avoid gnarly washboard and have a freshly grated road! Ultimately riders should do their homework. Spread the word! Ride safe and thanks for the video as I think it will bring some needed awareness to this section.
