    Noob from Burien, WA

    I'm new to hammock camping. I'm a veteran tent camper and have motorcycle camped for the past 9 years. Recently I acquired a HH Ultra lite after studying hammocks for many months; and I am attempting to learn how to effectively use this method of camping while motorcycling (dual sport primarily while hammock camping).

    Welcome to the forum! Tons of great information to get you up and hanging in no time. As was mentioned previously, there are quite a few motorcycle campers with tips aplenty. I look forward to hearing about your adventures.

    Love the name, BTW
    You're gonna need a bigger hammock
