Motorbike Road Trips Checklist – Things to Carry
I have always thought to myself, to have Motorbike Road Trips Checklist for items mandatory for all one day rides above 100 kms and for all overnight rides. Even on group rides it is highly recommended that every rider carries his own set of spares and tool kits. Though the manufacturer of the bike is the same the dimensions and fits of each bike and model highly varies. Have made one such checklist for our group, and sharing the same.
