OK I have been doing Rallies for longer then i want to remember
Here are a few lessons that i have learned by making mistakes and watching others it just may help so spend a second or two reading :-D if you want to
I use four “inventory” cards and a ICE sheet and if you decide to follow this PLEASE write it down.. we do not remember what we think we do (GRIN)
I have 1 3x5 card for all of the camping items and when they go on the bike then i check them off. This is not a full list but a guideline to work off Hope this helps someone to make their life and trip a bit easier
Sounds simple but if i have a quarter for everyone who goes “ouch no stakes” or something else I would have a nice large collection of BMW bike (GRIN)
The camping card that i use includes the following
Tent
Tent poles
Tent Stakes
small/mid size hammer
drop cloth
sleeping bag
sheet
and any other items that would make camping better for you
The second card is my list of clothing
4 or 5 days worth of clothing
radio (i do like music)
book
flashlight or two
extra batteries
medical items and sunscreen and other personal care stuff
toiletries as per you
drinking cup (good for coffee and or adult beverages)
sneakers and or sandals
bad weather gear as you want
The third card is for the tools that I will NEED not want.
Inexpensive DVM you will not be doing detailed testing just a go/no go
Tire plugging kit and small compressor
Trash bags small
Electric tape and, yes, small roll of duct tape…
And the forth card is for all the electronics that we travel with
2 power plugs for your phones and other stuff
spare cords that you have tested before
spare batteries if needed
I also carry two copies of the ICE sheet This is a list of all important numbers for traveling. These are printed out and one is in my jacket and the other stored on the bike.
A emergency phone number in case of really bad items I also have this as a note on my phone
