A rapidly growing cross-section of motorcyclists have taken to camping, both to reduce travel costs and to add an extremely enjoyable dimension to their adventures. Motorcycle camping offers an inexpensive, comfortable, relaxing way to see the country, enjoy nature, and share stories with your friends around a campfire. For many, camping is the ultimate motorcycling experience.

With the wide choice of high quality products now available, camping by motorcycle has never been easier. But camping by motorcycle isn't just a matter of buying high-tech equipment. This book is loaded with practical information to help you enjoy the whole experience. It covers issues such as evaluating your current bike for space and load-carrying capacity, what to look for in gear and how to use it, finding motorcycle-only campgrounds, planning and packing for your trip, and dealing with "critters" at camp, learning how to cook without a microwave, and even some recipes that will impress your friends.

Author Bob Woofter is a life-long camper who began camping by motorcycle just a few years ago. When he tried to apply his automobike camping experience to motorcycling, he discovered that he had to throw out much of what he knew and look at motorcycle camping from a completely new perspective. He learned by asking others what mistakes they had made, and by making many mistakes on his own. He wrote this book to help motorcycle campers avoid making the same mistakes.

Don't spend your next motorcycle vacation worrying is your rain fly will leak, your sleeping bag will come off in a cross-blast of wind on I-90, or if that plant you just touched was poison ivy. Instead, travel the easy way; enjoy what motorcycle camping is all about.
