    RVing

    My wife's idea of ruffing it in the RV is not being able to use Dish TV and using the local antenna or cable. I'd love to take the bike but she will not ride with me. Her Honda has 4 wheels. We tow it behind the Winnebago. In an RV vs Hotel, you know the room is clean. Food is good. You also know who put the stains in the linen

    Same idea, different approach ...

    The wife and I had similar ideas, Both of us have been all over the world with the Navy, but never on the ground west of the Mississippi ...... We picked up a (very nice) 5th wheel toy hauler for 8K and are loading the bikes up for an "extended weekend" trip starting next May. We are planning on hitting Sturgis on the way back in August.

    We prefer to have the living quarters and the power plant seperate, that way a failure in one does not put both out of commision.

    I also agree w/ the 5th wheel as a better option...

    My suggestion based on years of experience on this would be to purchase a class A or C [or if budget restricts you a camper and truck], and pull your bike to your destination of choice. Absolutely and unequivocally forget about a class B. Total waste of money, and too small for more than one person. On your travels you and your wife and or kids will want privacy, room to eat or read inside [without having to set up or pull down the bed to make room for the dining table and seats lol] on bad days and the ability to sustain yourself in areas where you won't have access to good water or shower services. A class B cannot store any significant amount of black water, grey water or potable water. Not to mention the lav itself would be a cassette toilet that would have to be removed every time you want to empty it.

    My suggestion would be maybe check again and think about pulling a toy hauler behind a truck as you would have a spare vehicle if you needed to go to the store and also a garage for your baby

    My wife and I have been camping for years. Have had every type of equipment you can camp in. We have a class c Winnebago Outlook and tow a flat bed with her trike on it. I ride the f6b. We have the option to off at any time. Wanted an RV that had both a bed and dining table. Stayed away from class B's because of size and space. Really enjoy the Winnebago. Has a large slide and don't have to extend it if we are overnight traveling. Have had a ball traveling and biking together. Headed south for Christmas with RV and bikes. I encourage you to look around. Many very good used rv's out there for sale. We have found Winnebago to have very high quality in things that count. Good luck, enjoy! Great way to see America!
