Ok now that the gear is accounted for.... show us how and what clothes you pack for 2 up and how it all fits when its time to roll out.

Also, how big are those matresses? They seem small. Can you show us pics of what your camp looks like after you arrive and get set up. That would be awesome. I wanna do more camping on the bike...

It looks like you put alot of thought into your gear. I wish my wife would do the camping thing, let alone on a bike. Heck, I can't get her to camp at the hunting land on the river.
Anyway, have fun.

the gear is well thought out. what are the dimensions of the duffel fully loaded. i used to carry a Coleman gear bag with all my stuff in it but that was on the RK, now i have a UC and it does not work at all.

Here is all packed up. North Face has all the camping gear and the HD bag on the sissy bar has all the clothes. Food and water are in the right saddle bag and tools and misc are in the left.

Here is the sleeping pad.

It works great and packs small. It does take a few minutes to blow it up not a big deal for us.
