When most of us think of motocamping, we think of tents—but they’re not the only way to go camping with your bike. Every rider will have their preferences, but what if you’re just trying stuff out, and you don’t even know what you like yet? Another option to consider for your moto camping needs is hammock camping—which is a bit different from tent camping in multiple ways.
As with tent camping, you’ll still want to pay attention to whether your chosen campsite is on an incline—and if it is, what direction your head will be pointed. The nice thing about hammocks is, they can pack up very small, which is great news when space is at a premium on your bike. As moto traveler Staci (the rider behind the Ride to Food YouTube channel) notes, you can switch out different packable elements for added comfort in your hammock setup, depending on your preference.
