Attention Motorcyle campers: Clothing?
I probably won't do it, but there's a possibility I might take a solo trip to Mid California and give camping one more try. I'm pretty sure I am too old for this, but I can always bail and hit a hotel if I change my mind. I'm interested in consolidating my riding/camping gear for double duty. For example, footwear suitable for both riding and hiking. Currently I favor Merrill lightweight hikers and I have Alpinestar Ridge boots. The Merrills don't come up above the ankle and the Alpinestars are heavy and hot. Also shirts - I have two really nice long sleeve, durable, washable, hiking shirts from REI, but they have collars, and collars flap. And pants. I have nice touring pants but armored and too heavy for walking, especially in the heat.
I tend to favor utility and durability over price, but since this is not something I'll probably do more than once or twice I'm gonna try and keep costs out of crazyland.
