2017 Cruiser Camping Guide: Playing it Safe

Be found in an emergency with the Spot Gen 3

Tires pop, rocks slide and cell phones fail, seemingly all at the worst times. One of the benefits of motorcycle travel is that it can get us so far off the beaten path, but that means that medical care and emergency services can be a long ways away. Here is a product that we couldn't recommend more for when nature calls you out a little further than usual.
