1. You can go to most places where you can go by bike/on foot (forget a few narrow paths and mountain roads).
2. It is more flexible in time, it can run farther than a bicycle (300 to 500 kilometers a day is already very easy), it is better to find a parking space than a car, and it is not afraid of traffic jams and does not have to wait for trains and planes.
Stop whenever you want, and go wherever you want.
4, not limited by physical strength, riding all day is very tired, but reasonable arrangements for rest, used to punching in at work.
Pre-preparation:
1, getting a regular motorcycle driver's license will cost less in big cities 1000 yuan. Don't underestimate this. When you are going on a long trip, a driver's license is a must for you to deal with the public security system. The quality of the law enforcement team depends on what kind of goods you encounter. At least formal procedures will reduce your unnecessary troubles. Accidents on the road are also protected by law, so don't underestimate your driver's license.
2. Choose the right motorcycle according to your own route. Generally speaking, off-road vehicles are unnecessary, because there are few places to really run, but the high fuel consumption and small fuel tank of off-road vehicles will make you want to die on a long road. /kloc-just buy a leather car around 0/0000. Used cars with good colors are not bad. EFI is the best, which saves trouble and fuel. You must have a legal license, don't think about what the police are afraid to chase. In many places, it is not uncommon to chase you blind. It's best to choose a car whose spare parts are easy to find and won't be thrown at you halfway.
3, simple car repair tools. When the engine breaks down, you have to give up. Most of the time, it is simple to tighten the chain, mend a tire and change the oil.
4. raincoat, not cloak raincoat. Otherwise, you will fall off the car, because the raincoat is hanging on the car and you will be dragged away by the car. Don't underestimate the raincoat. In fact, many times you need to travel in the rain, because you can reach the area without rain in an hour, so there is no need to wait for a rainy place for a long time. Rain pants should be careful not to leak, otherwise the feeling of sitting in the water will not be so good-looking, and it is easy to rot the skin and affect the trip. Please wrap your shoes in a plastic bag.
5. Side package and tail package as appropriate. A cigarette lighter socket is modified in the car, and the electronic equipment can be charged by plugging in the charger.
6. Better helmet. Every year, I hear that someone dies while traveling by bike. Many travelers actually despise helmets, thinking that I don't ride fast and there is no need to buy a helmet. In fact, a good helmet not only reduces the probability of your death, because you wear 10+ hours every day. The design and weight of a good helmet will not make you feel tired or hurt your neck. From 500 yuan, the more expensive the better.
Neck protection: Long-distance motorcycle travel can definitely protect the neck at a critical moment by raising the helmet to reduce neck and shoulder discomfort. It should be emphasized that long-distance motorcycle travel is not only a helmet, but also protective gear (helmet, neck protector, motorcycle suit, boots, etc. That determines your life and health.
Boots. This is very important. If you are not used to wearing motorcycle boots, you can use high-top special combat boots instead.
7. A formal bicycle suit. Features: Multi-pocket, fender, windproof. Or it is also possible to add a windproof and waterproof coat to the armor. You can understand the riding temperature as the local temperature is below zero10 c, so buy it according to this.
8, a pair of good gloves, both warm and windproof, fall and wear. Gloves above 100 are basically needed.
Drugs:
Hemostatic powder, sterilized crystalline sulfanilamide, gauze dressing, bandage, oral rehydration salt (this is a good medicine to supplement physical strength and treat heatstroke, and there is no side effect (if you don't trust the dosage, it won't count). A pack of oral rehydration salts contains two packs of powder, the big one is glucose sodium chloride and the small one is potassium chloride. Dissolve the big bag with 500 ml water, and then add potassium chloride to 500 ml sugar salt. )。 Sunscreen (although you wear a helmet, you need sunscreen), condoms (with many functions, not just detoxification needs), and other special drugs are added according to where you go. Or if you think it's necessary, it doesn't take up space anyway.
It costs about 12000 yuan to prepare in advance. Considering that you can ride your motorcycle for at least 65,438+00 years after you maintain it, it's not too much.
Journey:
1, be sure to plan the route. It is suggested that the navigation map be used to repeatedly determine the route, make important intersection warning signs, or how many kilometers there are to turn at the intersection, etc. There will be clear milestones and intersection signs on both sides of the national highway. Pay more attention. Don't miss the intersection because you are too greedy for the scenery on the roadside. After driving for about a few miles, stop to make sure you are on the right road.
In short, your sense of direction is not as good as you think, and your route preparation should be as perfect as possible. At the same time, your route should also take into account the weather, construction (which is very deadly) and other factors.
The opposite of the route is your timetable. How many days do you have, where to go every day, whether to book a hotel in advance, etc. But it has nothing to do with riding a motorcycle. For details, please refer to other modes of travel. The convenience of motorcycle can rest directly in small cities or towns, which is cheap, few people and no need to make an appointment.
About safety:
1, take the expressway selectively. If there are many passers-by, there is no scenery, and the local expressway charges and allows you to ride a motorcycle, then choose expressway. There are many cars on the expressway, so it's better to get off the expressway. Expressway is actually quite boring, and may be fined and deducted for no reason.
2. The national road is far away from big trucks. If you can't avoid it, overtaking needs to be super cautious. Be sensitive to intersections, beware of touching porcelain, drivers who don't obey the law and so on.
Try not to run at night. The high beam on the opposite side and the running lights of the truck will teach you what blindness is.
Never let strangers try your car. I seldom ride directly, but I have seen many people crash or kill people because their cars are good when riding. Motorcycles are spiritual, and a new car, even the same car, has a long period of maladjustment. )
Not much else to say, not so much attention, just ride.
Everyone can carry different mileage, so it is recommended that beginners start from 300 kilometers (the riding time is expected to be 6-7 hours).
