So Just looking at my ventura mistral bag and what to pack in it and thinking i wont fit much in,so my hairdyer is a no no . My Mrs does all the packing when we go away so this is new to me trying to decide what to take,as i cant ask her as she will say i am taking the piss. Having never done a trip like this before ,if it was in europe i would stick flip flops some shorts/t shirts but as we are going to the colder climats what do i take,the last europe trip i did was doing enduro and we had a van following with all our stuff in. As i am sharing with people i have never met before i cant go comando so what is everyone else taking,try to keep it clean,sorry if this is a bit gay but i really am hopeless on the domestic part of life. I am thinking 2 jeans,2 t shirts , shoes,socks,wash bag,towl and using the roll up packing method.
your right - well gay!! but us southern boys dont mind all that.... 1 jeans (your in leathers all day), skins under my leathers, 3 T's... wear clean night before, re-use under leathers next day. Same for pants and socks... done! Also a hoody / jumper and dont forget waterproofs! prob take spare gloves also. nothing worse than wet hands! really dont need much mate.
1 forget the towel, hotels have them wash bag fine, deodorant a must, Razor? grow a beard saves carrying shaving foam. Trollies 1 pair for every day ya dirty mofo. socks the same, pair of trainers/shoes 2 pair jeans 3 T shirts, use the one you wore at night under your leathers next day. 1 warm fleece for the evening wrap each days clothes in a carrier bag, start with shoes at bottom then pack on top, as you move through the weekend move the trainers up the bag and put on top of dirty clothes, saves unpacking everything at every hotel, its only a short one mate, use the space you have wisely. sleeping commando? knock yer sen out yer on yer jollies. and a little tip, if you think your room mates a snorer? give him a kiss on the cheek goodnight, the fcuker will be awake all night keeping an eye on you
[sleeping commando? Gary cant you come round mine and pack my bags for me sounds like you have it well sussed,are you ex army . knock yer sen out yer on yer jollies. and a little tip, if you think your room mates a snorer? give him a kiss on the cheek goodnight, the fcuker will be awake all night keeping an eye on you [/QUOTE] PMSL FUNNY THAT GARY.
Around the same as Gary/Jimbo, wouldn't take the wash bag itself just the loose items, maybe even travel size. A spare key and if the bike has an alarm key fob. Most importantly, Euro's......... Remember your only gay if your the post box, post men don't count.
yeah, passport… with Scotland vying for independence from England, the sods have put border control asking the sassanacks and English for passports. Strange, but very true.
1pair of undies. they do 4 days. wear normal, next day…back to front, day after that, turn them inside out, day after that, turn them back to front. puncture repair kit. waterproofs. Trendy jeans and a thong, just incase Firebloke hits on you blowing kisses over a wee dram and ice. Saucy little minx he is. hoodie/warm jumper few t shirts flip flops.
Awe man, should have said you wanted to learn the lingo, there's been a documentary on discovery channel this past month, by a chap called Rab C Nesbitt. I fookin love that guy. Quotes from Rab C. Nesbitt Therapist: "Mr Nesbitt, were you close to your father?" Rab: "Not unless I could help it, otherwise I would get a boot about the melt, but I always remember the friction burns he left on the carpet when I handed over my first wage packet." Mary: [shocked] "My God" [to the therapist] "It's weird that you can live with someone for so long but you never really know them" Rab: "Didn't you know my father was an alky?" Mary: "Oh aye, but I didn't know you had a job!" Some place Govan eh? Where else can you get a fish supper at 9am? Simple, just steal it off a drunk that's been lyin pished outside a close all night. Rab C. Nesbitt (Gregor Fisher) There's nothing that restores yer faith more in human nature than meeting some poor bastard that's just as mad as yourself. Rab C. Nesbitt (Gregor Fisher). After meeting his Spanish double on a holiday to Benidorm It's not Buckfast that sign should say, it should say Fastbuck Rab C. Nesbitt (Gregor Fisher) Rab: "Mary, you and I go back a long way to let a pound of dead meat come between us." Mary: "Let's leave our sex life out of this."
