Spot on! Do not shy away to stray from your planned route once in a while and you will have the thrill of exploring "uncharted" areas. If on a longer trip skip riding once a week. Do maintenance, wash laundry, go hiking, check out the area, eat properly. Let your body and mind rest for a day. You will enjoy the riding so much more.
Well said!
Great video. Some beautiful scenes. I have Lists on my Gmaps. Green flags for places for places I want to go to if I'm in the area, hearts for family & friends, blue squares for Royal Enfield dealers and stars for Must Stop points. I just green flagged the Million Dollar Highway, thanks. Last summer I rode Natchez Trace stopping at all the info pullouts, a must. This year want to go north to south. Thank for all you do!
Sounds great! Thank you
I travel with 3-4 friends on two week trips every year. We usually plan 12 road days with a 2 day buffer to allow for weather or mechanical issues. We preplan for where we will end our days, and choose our stops along the way regarding site seeing and places we want to visit. Only reserve a couple of hotels so we usually just find one along the way in a late afternoon break. Never had an issue in finding a place to sleep.
Well said!
Great way to start my Saturday, thanks Tim!
I appreciate that!
Yes, “balance is key,” as you said. It’s easy to try and pack too many miles or too much time on the bike into one day. As a Florida resident, interesting rides (i.e. hills and curves) are far away and involve a multi-day trip. Everything you mentioned in this video comes into play.
Absolutely!
Been riding and traveling since 1972. I use Butler maps, RoadRunner Magazine, Garmin Basecamp for putting it together. On line videos are helpful.
Thanks for sharing!
I like planning as it fires my imagination. I tend to look at what I want to see/do and how many miles I want to do then book a hotel or campsite (more necessary in the east/mid section than west). That way I don’t have deal with it late in the day. Having said that I really hate the feeling of being “locked in” and the “hurry hurry hurry, gotta have fun, gotta have fun” feeling. I am leaving next week from Atlanta to Texas for the Touratech Spring rally and getting there is tight with little margin for delays esp weather. And lets not talk about “mission creep” when it comes to trip purpose. I am getting better about this but not there yet
it is called adventure riding. I plan extensively and then always end up on some side route that creates the adventure.
This is a great subject. With most motorcycle gas tanks being 2 gallons. Personally I don't like highways being on motorcycle. I would rather ride up 13 and 23 in Michigan than 127 or 75. 31 is a nice ride too. We have lots of great off road trails here. Loud pipes save lives and can scare bear. Way to Native has a great video on a bear that almost attacked his wife on Motorcycle.
Thank you! I'll have to check those out next time I'm up that way.
Good tips Tim. Checking out your new channel now.
Awesome, thank you!
Great tips! Thanks Tim.
You bet!
Great summary of highly useful tips!
Thank You!!
Great Info thanks !!!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video 😊
Thanks! 😊
Thx Tim! 👍🏼
Tx. Tim. Great tips. Ride safe.
Thanks you too!
Great video and good advice! 👍Thanks Tim!
Thank you!
Great tips planning trip across USA next month
Good luck!
Great info as always. I would also add that it's a good idea to have some sort of navigation that doesn't rely on an internet connction, be it paper maps of offline GPS navigation.
Great tip!
My wife and I fully agree with your point about missing something great just because you didn't know it was there. That happened to her with Stonehenge when she was in the UK and it has happened to me a bunch of times too.
Sorry to hear that has happened to you as well. I definitely learned my lesson to do a little preliminary research.
@@FTAAdventures and I should also clarify so people don't think we're idiots - we are well aware that Stonehenge is in the UK. But she was only a couple of miles away from the site on a work trip. She had no idea she was so close and could have easily driven over to see it.
I was expecting more of a technical video, like what apps or maps you use. I was hoping for a real time "in year 20xx this is how I planned my trip to someplace"
Regarding your terrifying experience with the Idaho Cougar and being in Griz Bear territory as you said,.... Surprising that you zip up your tent with bear spray on your bike? And, why don't you have a significant defense weapon? Enjoy your videos.
Thanks Tim. Good advice.
Thank you!
I have a question off subject. I want to do my first camping adventure to a specific destination. My question is, once I get there and setup camp, would you just leave it all set up while you roll out and explore daily, or would you pack up and take it with you and the setup again at the end of each day. I want to explore Big Bend.
I leave my stuff setup but I don’t leave behind anything I can’t live without. So tent, sleeping bag, chair all get left set up. Most everything else comes with me for the day. Hope this helps and have fun!
Did you get a new bike??
No it was old footage
