Motorcycle Tours, Planning for the Ride

From that first small stain of oil gracing your garage flooring to the road map heavily marked with arrows, circles, and notes, summer means it's motorcycle season. It's time to take that winter overhaul project out of the garage and on to the open road. Whether you prefer short day trips or a meandering ride from state to state, there is something intoxicating about a highway stretched out before you and the wind in your hair. Immortalized in print (Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance), or in film (Easy Rider), we have long romanticized the idea of the motorcycle road trip and the freedom that it implies.

Whether you are touring the Northeast, riding cross-country, exploring adventure rides in Europe, or riding for a great cause you know the thrill and spiritual enjoyment it brings. Those lucky enough to have the means and the bike to set off on such an adventure know that planning is a crucial part of any road trip. With the aspect of the open road, unknown destinations, and very little space for storage along the way, riders are forced to travel light; and pack smart. Given that space is at such a premium, you'll want to make sure you have room for essentials.

Top 5 picks are:

1. Rain Gear

2. Cold Weather Gear

3. Sunscreen

4. A few Basic tools

5. Tarp (in case you have to wait out some bad weather)

It's been calling your name the whole time you've been laying tools across your garage flooring, wrenches and sockets kept close at hand. Riders everywhere crave the open road and the summertime breeze. Now that summer is finally here, it is that time to get the gear together and get out and hit that blacktop. Whether you pack a map, is up to you!
