You can fit even more stuff in a compression bag, which is a stuff bag with compression straps, fill it up & tug on the straps until you can't get the straps to move anymore, it saves a lot of space.

Hey Darn
Yep, I do have a camper, but sometimes just need to travel faster. For those times when I don't have to be in a hurry, and just travel to be traveling, I pull the camper. If I'm going to be at the same spot a few days, I'll set up the whole enchilada.

WOW! I think we have found our MASTER CAMPER! Dang!

Where is that at? Why isn't there any grass (on the ground, I don't know what's in the camper)?

Hey Darn
It's at Fort Wilderness at Disney World last November. Thanksgiving week is their slowest week of the year, so they do their landscaping at that time of year. But, it's also the cheapest time of the year, at $45 a night. I'm another one that likes to stretch a dollar till it hollers.

Hey Danny
Still have a lot more lights that weren't on there. I always load up on lights after the Holidays.
All the full time RV'ers kept coming around to see how big it was going to end up.

Re:Fully loaded ride 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Loaded for an overnight seminar...
Le'see... Rain gear, two pair of shoes, three pair of sox, three pair of under shorts, Jeans, Dress slacks, a pair of shorts, three shirts, a tee shirt, a sport coat and a bag of assorted toiletries...
Oh yeah, a laptop, scanner, digital camera (I took this picture with...) Florida Building Code books (3), cell phones (yeah 2, one for work, and a personal one... with assorted chargers...)
Two helmets (you never know who you might meet on a trip ) Leathers (jacket, chaps, vest gloves and boots) night glasses, sunglasses and goggles... (Hey! It rains a lot in Florida...)
So, let's not forget the required tools, and spare parts and other what-nots that I carry on the bike...
Now, let's see... did I forget anything...?
Oh crap! I forgot to turn off the stove!

Oh, yeah... Now I have hard bags... That means more room for more stuff!
