Riding and motorcycle camping on my first bdr adventure was certainly a learning experience. I learned a lot on the Washington BDR and I wanted to take a minute to reflect and share some of my personal tips for your first BDR adventure. If you're heading out on your first Backcountry Discovery Route, here are eight things to think about beforehand.
Hopefully your motorcycle camping adventure on the BDR will go smoothly and you'll have a great time. I certainly enjoyed the week I spent riding and motocamping on the Washington Backcountry Discovery Route.
One of the best first backcountry discovery route tips I can give you is realize that a BDR moto camping trip is more of a "ride to camp" than a "camp to ride." If you're trying to narrow down your bdr camping gear list, just remember that you'll spent the vast majority of the time on the BDR riding your adventure or dual sport motorcycle and very little time in camp. It's better to prioritize motorcycle riding gear over BDR camping gear and only take what you need to achieve a bear minimum level of overnight camping comfort.
