any advice is welcomed

hope to hear from you guys soon

regards keiren

Welcome Keiren,
That's a good idea to go on a trip like the Nord kapp with an experienced rider, the fact it's your dad is a bonus. You'll have a great time.

Try and get a few camping trips in before you go and see how you are managing doing 200 mile days. Also get some experience in the rain. This will check out your gear and also improve your riding skills.

Another thing to know is how far your bike will go before it runs out of fuel. Not only how far to reserve but do you have 30 or 40 miles left after that. Carry a gallon can while you find that out though! ha ha. Then you probably won't need it again as you'll have some confidence in the range in the tank.

Have loads of good rides
