Weekend ride & camp - Any interest?

Now that the weather has cooled off and will probably not reach the likes of Corona Summer 2020 I thought about a short weekend camping (tent & the such) trip. Most likely just hit State Parks or something. Maybe leave Thursday Evening after work or Friday morning and come back Sunday afternoon/evening.
Just a thought. I haven't planned anything or even looked at routes or parks to stay at just yet but this cooler weather has got me yearning for a weekend ride.

I've wanted to do this for some time. A ride in and a campout. Maybe have a contest on the best campsite and the most minimalistic campsite. Must bring it in on the bike. No support vehicle. What ya think?

I like the idea. I haven't done it as often as I would have liked to but the few times I have I've always enjoyed just showing up, pitching a tent, and start cooking dinner. Whether it be it a been weenie stew or some nicely grilled meat.
Let's do it.

Guess everybody else has gotten to old and soft. I like motorcycle camping. You can take a trip and keep going. You don't have to come back. I did 25 days 2 years ago.

Depends on where you go. I need to look at hiking equipment and see if they have a air conditioner that will fit in my bag.

You won't need a/c. maybe a heater but I'm only doing it when it's going to be cool.

only when it's cool even down right chilly. A good sleeping bag, I can sleep like a baby. I have woke up to see frost inside my tent.

I need to start getting my gear ready. I have about 90% of everything I need but I don't know what the other 10% is but what I do look forward to is cooking up some really good gourmet style steaks with fixings.
if you come when I go I'll cook it up good!!! oh and whiskey
