- Motorcycle camping in Winter on a Triumph Bonneville T120. In this ASMR motovlog you can unwind with the sounds of birds mingled with a stiff winter breeze, rain on the tent and the low rumble of a 1200cc parallel twin.
I intend to do a lot more motorcycle camping trips this year, so with the temperature set to fall to zero degrees and light rain that night, I packed up the Bonneville and set off on the first of this year’s motorcycle camping trips.
If you're interested in any of the gear I used on this camping trip, or used to make the film, you can find much of it listed on my Amazon Storefront:

Just curious what size jeans would you normally wear and what size are these ones? Great video by the way - new subscriber.
@@hoozleup glad to have onboard Steve, thanks for the sub 🙏. Personally I’m a 30” leg and a 32” waist in Levi’s 511’s, in the Roadskin jeans I got a 32 ‘S’ which fit perfect 👌
What tent ?
@@Parkmonday14 it’s a Decathlon Two Seconds Easy tent 🏕️
I can't in honesty call these videos, they are mini films and that is the quality you consistently put out. They are like a mini mental break, utterly exceptional work sir, bravo.
Thanks Stephen, that’s quite the compliment! I’ll keeping making them as long as folk keep watching them 👍
The sound of rain on a tent while reading a book, blissful
There's hardly a more relaxing way to spend time.
Love your "just riding along" video style with very few voiceovers. Especially impressed with the little things like catching your own reflection in the mirror, or a quick shot of the classic turn signal blinking away. Not many GoPro folks bother with that kind of cinematic detail. And it goes without saying: ominous grey clouds and low light settings just add to the visual appeal. Great job mate! Cheers from Alabama
Thanks, glad to hear you liked the videos. We're 'lucky' here in the Peak District that grey, ominous clouds are a permanent feature 😁
One man and his motorcycle, peace and Tranquility in a mad world ❤️👍
There’s not much else we need 👌
You made it look so easy , so no excuses now people get out there and camp . Thanks for posting
As they say, there’s no bad weather, just bad gear.
I love the tent/bike canopy arrangement.
The amount of detail that you get into your videos is amazing.
Thanks, it’s a bit of effort but worth it 👍
Hi Matt. Your motorbike rides in England are an event, not only for the quality of the landscapes, but also for the atmosphere you create with your presence and what you want to transmit at every moment and with every sequence. You convey a peace and the contact you have with nature, with the accompaniment of Bonny and his deep and clear audio. Thank you and best regards from the Canary Islands.
Thank you Paco, I’m glad you enjoy the videos so much. I must get over to the Canary Islands at some point, it looks like a biker’s paradise there.
every single time i watch one of your videos i feel like instantly going out with my own T120.
Maybe you should 🙂
Matt, that shot as you rode away going down that beautiful twisty road was perfect. Another great video Sir!.
Thanks, it's a great bit of road that 👌🏻
Oh - how great is that? Storytelling, production value, no talking head....
I really enjoyed it! 12 out of 10 points!
Thanks very much! Glad you liked it 👍
BRIL simply the best. I could never live back in the UK but this here is the biz, stay free.
Thanks, the UK’s not always terrible 😁
Another great video Matt ! Beautifully shot and inspiring at the same time.
Just goes to show that you don’t have to cross the world to have an adventure. That lantern is awesome by the way, and a proper book rather than a kindle. Top marks for those !
Thanks mate, it’s only about an hour away from where I live but as you say, you don’t need to go far to have a mini adventure.
Don’t think I’ll ever go to the Kindle dark side, I like seeing all the books I’ve read on shelves, it weirdly makes me feel proud 😁.
And that lantern was rubbish, first time I used it and it ate through four massive batteries in one go, batteries aren’t cheap these days 😁
I like a proper book, and indeed bookshelf, myself. SWMBO has different ideas about my ‘tat’ though 🤣
And there I was thinking it was one of those lovely looking Feuerhand Hurricane Lanterns 🙄🤣
@@matthewbenjafield5470 I should’ve got a proper hurricane lantern to be fair, would’ve been cheaper too 🤦🏻♂️
This is not a vlog. It's a 100% satisfying move. Great Video.
love from Bangladesh
Thank you so much 🙏 Glad you liked it 🙂
Hello from Russia.
If people lived by the love of the moment, everything would be easier.
Good job!
I totally agree 🙏🏻
@@ClassicRides Online translator, does not translate everything correctly😂
@@Zenyoks1977 it does a better job than I could 😂
This is life 😍
I agree ☝️
Thanks for your videos, I follow you from Spain and you can't imagine how important they are to me. A hug ✌
Thanks Antonio, I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos 🙏
You are one seriously organised mudderf... hats off to you
I’m really not 😁
I love this intro shot
Thanks 🙏

Hi Dave, glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the videos. Seems to be more and more bikers on UA-cam so there’s plenty to watch!
Spent a few nights there over the years with Tam and Will , theyve done a great job on converting the site
Second time visiting for me, it’s a lovely little site. Tam & Will seem like great people too 👌
great video no endless yapping just music great bike
Thanks John, glad you liked it 👊
Beautiful filming, music, atmosphere. Such a sole resting tale. Thnx so much for sharing!
Glad you liked it 🙏
A wonderfully engaging watch/listen as always…..and full marks for endurance! 👍🏻
Thank you sir, having the right camping gear helps a lot!
Must of watch this video six times it’s so relaxing what a perfect night out love the rain on the tarp just a brilliant video,and I will watch it again 😊 and again 😊thanks mate 👍
Great to hear you liked the video so much! Be my guest to watch it as many times as you like 😁
The simplicity that takes so much skill to capture and edit really is beautiful to watch.
Thank you for sharing inspiring and cinematic films.
An easy choice to subscribe to your channel.
So glad you liked it, and thanks for the sub, always good to have another motovlogger along for the ride.
Beautifully crafted little film which captures the essence of motorcycle camping. I’m inspired yet again to throw my stuff on to the back of my Bonneville and head off. My goodness Matt even the sounds and timing of the acoustic blend so well with the filming. You are an artist. Late to this because I wanted to save it for later. This is later. Huge thanks for this
If my video inspires you to go out and have an adventure, then my work here is done 😁. Glad you enjoyed it!
Good camping kit Matt. Just take what you need. Lovely bike👍
Thanks Chris, all you need is a few essentials 👍🏻
Thank you from Perth , Western Australia 👍
Thank you Mr Jones 🙏
From cold & snowy central Canada with another month or two before I can ride again - you lifted my spirits and made my heart soar. Oh how I long to camp and ride again. Thanks 🙏
The warmer weather’s on its way, not too long now 🤞.
Great Video my friend 🙌👌 ... peaceful and relaxing moment... 💯💯
Glad you liked it! 🙏
Beautiful! This video has such a calming effect! It’s therapeutic 😃
So glad you think so!
That cold start rumble 😍
It’s a great sound 👌
What a wonder cooking ware! Excellent! ✌😉👌
thanks again! 🙏🏻
The fire system is cool! Never seen this
They’re very handy, and quite cheap to buy from Amazon. I very much recommend one if you camp a lot.
I was just absorbing the whole atmosphere there, very calming. Another piece of art.
Thanks so much, always glad you enjoyed a video!
Stayed at that very campground last June. Lovely area. Weather very similar. Thanks for posting. Great video.
Thanks, so glad you liked the video. It’s a great little campsite isn’t it, lovely owners too.
My goodness! I don’t have that much gear packed in my 1978 VW Camper Bus. You have motorcycle camping down to a fine art.😎👍
Thank you, a little bit of organisation goes a long way 😁
Amazing, simply amazing! Thank you Matt!! 👍👍
Thanks Nelio 🙌 Hope you’re doing well!
@@ClassicRides thank you Matt, I'm fine, hope you too.
Superbe video Matt , on y voit l'équipement idéal et necessaire pour un week end camping et la Bonnie est capable d'embarquer tellement en mode solo , c' est super merci à toi ❤ un super moment ce visionnage
I’m so glad you liked it Philou 🙏
Excellent stuff Matt....
Thanks Henry! 🙌
so chilling
Glad you think so 👊
Just found you.. I have to echo all the positive comments. This is exceptional work. Love your bike, love the storytelling, my better half has just said let's do it. Which is mind-blowing given she is absolutely obsessed with with wild camping on top of mountains. Thank you 👌
If my video helped in her decision then I’m glad to have been of service!
Your brave Matt, but another great video.
Thanks Les! I might be cold, but the trade off is there’s no bugs or screaming kids on the campsites 😁
Another classic video. Much enjoyed. Very simple interesting presentation. No fluff, just a beautiful ride and a good campout. Thanks
Thanks Sam, it was a good start to this year’s camping adventures, it can only get warmer!
As always brilliant chilled video. That’s quite a rig you have there. Love the pop up tent.
Thanks Owen, Decathlon do some pretty decent camping gear 👌
Awesome & Brave.................
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you, brilliant footage once again
Thanks Edward! 🙏
Amazing!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you so much, glad you liked it 🙏
Awesome bike and travelling kit alsó.😀👍
Thanks 🙏
Great job! Very well filmed and love the music. Thank you so much! Cheers to you.
Thanks Ross, glad you enjoyed it!
Lovely bike, great scenery.
Thanks 🙏
Fabulous film Matt, just the thing after a stressful day at work. Solo overnight camping trips are good for the soul.
Totally agree with you there, plan on doing much more this year 🤞
I enjoyed watching this and like your bike and personal touches done to it, just got a T120 myself so it gave me quite a few ideas! :-)
Glad to have given you a few ideas to start personalising your bike 👍
That's a perfect view! 素晴らしい 🙌🙌🙌
Thanks Atsuki! 🙏
Thank you for your vid Matt. Such a quiet moment to enjoy behind our screens and yet feeling like we were there. Thumbs up Mate. A warm hello from Normandy in France. Merci encore !!✌
Thanks Mark, glad you enjoyed the video, just need the warmer weather to arrive now 🌞
Great ride! Riding & camping along is an ultimate experience
One of the best experiences you can have 🏍️💨
Matt! This is your best vid yet! I may have said that before, but you have stepped up your game! I know how much time and special effort it took to set up and shoot those shots in the beginning ride. Good on you mate. I love that perfection in you. I’m just another fan and wanna-be from America. Enjoying your content always. Thanks Matt. Ron
Thanks for the kind words Ron, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy making them so it’s great to hear that other people like them too 😁
Such a refreshing and amazing video thanks a lot and keep making such videos .
I’ll certainly try to Mr He-man 😁
多謝!
Thank you so much Wallace! 🙂
Really nice video. Especially enjoyed the quietude of it. Great contrast to some of the moto vlogs I've been watching lately where the narrator drones on and on, incessantly about the pros and cons' of his bike. Excellent videography as well.
I live in the states and have a T120. Love the bike!
It really is a good bike isn’t it. Glad you liked the video, totally understand what you mean with some other motovloggers, often it feels like they’re talking just to make noise, it’s not needed 🙂
bike is looking an sounding great
Thanks Stanley!
@@ClassicRides how the ride , any vibration whilst enjoying the views
@@stanleylawson9015 non at all, my bike’s smooth as silk 😁
gutes Video, schöne Landschaft
Thanks Andreas 🙌
Lovely video again Matt, want to camp as well now. Lovely footage! Thanks
Thanks Lilian! Warmer weather for camping is just around the corner now 🌞
@@ClassicRides Not yet in Sweden Matt… snow is on it’s way while I’m writing…. Minus degrees will follow, Bonnie is waiting in the garage for the next ride, hopefully next week again when the roads are dry again…. Ah well at least I have some videos to catch up here on YT💖 Ride safe Matt and keep them coming
@@Swedenbonnie Ah, we’re due a short cold snap too, not as cold as yours probably! Stay warm Lilian 🌞
Good for you! I rent big Harley’s for their fairing and sound system and locking saddlebags. I own a t120 and took it for 1,000 trip from Philly to Montreal. It was a bit much in the wind but it did fine. Tour on what you want like they did 30 years ago
I can understand renting a HD, there are so many much more practical machines for camping, but if it was good enough for Ted Simon, it’s good enough for me 😁
As always, watching your videos is therapy for the soul. And the Bonnie's sound is instantly delicious! 😍
Thanks Pete, and I totally agree, the bike does sound great 😁
Hi Matt I love your vids ! They are always a nice break from my work! I'm looking forward to spring! Thank you very much and many greetings from cold Germany ! Timo
Thanks Timo, I'm looking forward to it warming up too!
The good thing about your bike shed is that no one will ever be able to steal your bike 😀
Honestly it’s hard enough getting the bike out when you’ve got the keys. At the very least it won’t be stolen quickly, so I’ll have time to run up with something heavy 😁
@@ClassicRides 😆
Hello! Your motorcycle and the way you ride it is great! Good luck to you and your channel!
Thank you, glad you like the bike and the videos 🙏
Looks great
Thanks Fredy 👊
A lovely peaceful and relaxing video. Just what I needed after a long week.
It must take you an age to film and edit them !
Thanks for posting 😉
Glad you enjoyed it Andrew, they do take a while to make but worth the effort I think.
Aaah this video too short, more cooking and brewing please 😊.
I enjoyed your video journey since the Royal Enfields one, and it keeps on keeps growing on the video and sound quality and the storytelling are varied.
Just what I do in my downtime, weekend motoring to a cafe and a spot to unwind, still longing the motocamping and overland camping by myself and misus tho, so subscribing big and small and growing YT channels from USA, Australia and yours in the UK, keeps me entertain and inspired to do the trips by my self, but with my current work schedule and family, this will do for now.
Cheers ...
Glad to be helping you out Faisal, I’ll try to make the next one longer 😁
I continue to enjoy your rides!
Glad to hear it Mike!
You make wonderful videos. After hours and hours deliberating what to get, I've just put a deposit down on a new Royal Enfield classic 350. Similar to yourself, nearly 40...I got my licence at back when I was 21 but I've gone years without a bike. I had a bad accident on one back then, and kinda shut out the idea of having one again. But I wish I hadn't. I absolutely can't wait to get back at it again, I've remembered what I loved about it so much all those years ago. A feeling that can't be described to none bikers! Your videos helped inspire me 👍👍
So happy to hear the videos have inspired you a bit to get back to biking. The Classic 350 looks to be a lovely bike too, it’s a great choice, I’ll have to try one sometime.
In the meantime I hope the weather warms up quick so you can get out and get that little single thumping it’s way through the countryside.
@Classic Rides I can't wait. Keep up the good work Matt and safe travels 👍👍
my next bike after i’ve worn out my Bobber. need more comfort. great video.
Thanks Jason, they’re great ‘do everything’ bikes 👌
🙏🏍️💨. Another awesome film.. Roll on getting away again on my bike..p.s.made me hungry too!!! 💥
My work here is done 😁
Just a suggestion - when you're fully laden with luggage (black in color), you might want to consider adding some red aux tail lights to the outer edges of your luggage, so that someone approaching you from behind can quickly figure out how wide your motorcycle is with luggage. Denali T3 switchback or similar ones should do it.
Thanks for the suggestion Uday. That’s probably a great idea for a fully laden GS, I don’t think it’s really a problem that needs fixing on my Bonny though 🙂
I thought I was right there with you. Really nice vid.
Thanks Vince, so nice to hear!
Simple , well done!
CV.
Thanks Clifford, glad you enjoyed it.
Another great vid Matt!! After a hard winter on the bike that at times has felt endless ,looking forward to some more camps ,thanks
I know how you feel Richie, about ready for some warmer weather now 🌞
You make it look pleasant and relaxing. Great videography!
It was pleasant and relaxing, a great start to this years camping adventures.
Pretty cool trip style! Nice edition! Cheers
Thanks 🙏
Buenas,ya echaba de menos estos viajes tuyos,con este he vuelto a tus orígenes, gracias por dejarnos viajar y disfrutar contigo ,ya esperando el siguiente!!!un saludo desde España.
Thanks Eduardo, there’s more coming!
Great video!! Thank you for sharing such an adventure! x
Thanks Kelsey! Glad you liked it 🙏
Perfect 👍🏻
Glad you think so! 🙏🏻
Lovely ride! 👌
Thanks Dimitris 🙌
Awesome vlog as always Matt 👏👏👍
Thanks Andy 🙌
As always great video.
Thanks Jan, as always, I'm glad you liked it!
Wonderful
Thank you 🙏
バイクへの愛を感じる❣️
So glad you like it 🙏
Lovely coverage, particularly during the meal prep and cooking. It just astounds me how much effort you put in, gathering the different shots. Spring hasn't started here yet, in western Germany - we've had snow and rain all week, so you must have had it a few days earlier. I guess we just need to be patient for the drier weather...
Thanks Simon, I enjoy doing it so it doesn’t really feel like effort, and getting nice comments from folk like yourself is a bonus too.
We’re having terrible weather here too now, it’s been wet and miserable for a few weeks so just about ready for some Spring warmth now 🌞
Beautiful bike.... love from sikkim, India..
Thank you 🙏
Fantastic quality on this video. Leaving this comment for you and the algorithm, but the sub was for me. Cheers.
Thanks so much 🙏, me and my data for the analytics appreciates the comment 👍
That was awesome !!
Thanks Marcus, always glad to hear you liked a video 🙏
a good clam chowder in the nature! :D
I prefer calling it “hobo stew” 😁
Awesome!! From Malaysia
Glad you liked it Aman! 🙏
Simply superb video ❤ Wow …Loved the music 🎶…Very neatly presented 👌🏻👌🏻…Visual Treat
Thanks, I’m so glad you liked it 🙏
@@ClassicRides 🙏❤️🤝
Hi Matt, just found your channel today in my YT feed. What a cracking little trip on the Bonnie. Happy memories of doing similar trips back in the day in the UK and Europe until I moved with my work to sunnier climes in 2005 to Malaysia. Temperatures are somewhat different out here, as is the level of rainfall 🌪. Having recently retired and the family having grown up, the urge to continue my 55 year love affair with riding bikes has prompted me to return to 2 wheels. Lots of lovely places to see over here and so nice to take the bike rather than the car. Have subbed to your channel and look forward to catching up with the backlog of previous videos you've put out. Cheers. Safe riding and camping 👍🇲🇾
Hi Razif, glad to have you onboard, thanks for the sub 🙏. Good to hear you’ve returned to biking, I bet there’s some special routes to ride in Malaysia and now you’ve retired, plenty of time to see them, sounds perfect 👌
Great video! I should try something like that some day. All the best!
You should, I very much recommend it 👌🏻
Beautifully made film with a lot of passion for both motorcycling, film making and camping. New subscriber here. Looking forward to discover the channel!
Thanks for the sub Daniel! 🙏 Glad you liked the video.
