Plan for maximum allowed weight

Load for purpose. Unload excess.  Thanks to the flexible storage, we made a weight simulator in excel.

How does it work

Determine the weight of your 'normal' setup.

  • Put everything in for 1 week travel, to a non specific location.  Or even better, go for a trip of 1 week, and see what you come home with (add what you forgot).

  • Only the lightest setup (no bikes, ...).

  • No dirty water, but water & fuel 100% filled.  Or less, If you accept the limitation on wild camping.

  • Get your rig on a weighing bridge, (without driver or passengers) to know the loadable weight.

Weighing is knowing

Bikes, storage boxes, yourself, the dog, ... for anything that might be added (or removed) determin the weight and put it in the sheet.  Starting with yourself !

Simulate

By adding 1 or 0, you decide to take it or leave it.
