Welcome to Motorcycle Camping
Welcome fellow motorcycle campers and future motorcycle campers!
One of my favorite things to do is load up the motorcycle (currently a Yamaha 1300 Tourer) and head out for the weekend or longer for a camp trip.
I had gone on weekend camp trips, but last June was my first long trip. A couple friends and I headed from Kansas City to Yellowstone for a 2 week journey that I will not soon forget. In fact, I found a new love for something I enjoyed doing... riding my motorcycle and camping. A sort of marriage of hobbies if you will. :)
This year we are headed to the Grand Canyon... a round trip totaling about 3400 miles. I've been looking forward to this trip since I got home from my Yellowstone camp trip.
I learned quite a few things last year and I look forward to applying what I learned last year to my trip this year where I am sure to learn more about motorcycle camping!
By day, I am a system administrator in the information technology field. Thus my enthusiasm for building a website where motorcyclists could discuss my new found hobby... in hopes that we all can learn from each other and share stories from the campsite.

Don't know when you were in the Tetons, but you posted your shot of your campfire there on April 22. That's within a day of when I passed through there (if you were there then too, it was damn cold, wasn't it?) Anyway, I got pictures of the mother Grizzly and her 3 cubs that you must have been talking about. Ranger there told me she's around the area a lot. Got a bunch of pictures--from a pretty good distance. Saw a moose that day too.
