can't believe I never saw this topic.
OK, this is cheating but this was an 8-week multi-thousand mile trip across the SE US.
The trailer held a two suitcases, a two man tent, a Coleman cook stove, Coleman lantern, an ice chest, a plastic tub with canned goods, another food box with bread, crackers, cookies...a box for gallon of Coleman fuel, a gallon of gas a couple quarts of oil and two spare trailer tires. If it wasn't on the seat for back support, my sleeping bag was unrolled & folded out flat. Notice how the trailer rode downhill? There was a vinyl divider in the top that zipped, and a wire loop. You could hang nice clothes and they shook flat going down the road.

Thats what moneys for, so you can afford creature comforts, was never much for packing my scoots up with camping gear etc. Trying to think the last time I packed the scoot or scoots up. Can't. I rarely keep a scoot close to a year, when I was schooled they said never get attached to any bike, better to ride a bunch of scoots than the same the same one, over and over. But then again, this is my Loading up, I load up with frogskins.

Last month the wife and I spent a week exploring Arizona high country. Took this picture on a pee stop along the Coronado Trial.
