My Five Biggest ADV Riding and Motorcycle Camping Mistakes

Описание: I've made a LOT of mistakes in the last nine years of ADV riding, motocamping, and general adventure bike shenanigans. Some of these mistakes were minor and easily laughed off, but a few of my adventure riding mistakes have defined my time on dual sport and adventure motorcycles in a very consequential way.

Huge thanks to Quad Lock for sponsoring this video. Check out all their amazing phone cases and motorcycle phone mount options here: https://bit.ly/4hQ7npt

Allow me to bare my soul and share my most embarrassing and stupid motorcycle riding and motorcycle camping mistakes. From burning up my CRF250L clutch to moving up to my Honda Africa Twin too early...I've learned a lot of things the hard way...and I hope you won't have to.

Consider these some of my best adventure motorcycling tips for new adv and dual sport riders as well as new motocampers.
