Default Would you ever consider letting a biker use your location for a waypoint

If we had a Waypoint Club for the guys that wanted to motorcycle travel are country on the cheap .
Would you consider giving up a patch of grass on your property or in your backyard for one or two over night bikers . I’m not saying doing this every day or even once a week , but maybe just a few times a year .

Nope, I’ve done it! I’ve had guys from afar trailer and park their hauling rigs.

In the past, I've invited young, single, rich, females home to stay a bit. I haven't had many takers...

I've used HipCamp.com before, found some great places for half the cost of a KOA. Never heard of BunkABiker, but it looks like a great resource!

I’m not talking 5 bikers pulling up with a chase truck and half a motorcycle club , I’m only talking about one or two guys looking for one and only one night to camp on your property. No food or using showers or any of the amenities like gas grills ,pools , etc. Just a safe place to get 8 or 10 hours sleep .
