Episode 2: Moto Camping Pads and Avoiding Buttcrack Heat Rash

On this episode, we talk about camping pads (or mattresses) and crack a lot of bad jokes. We discuss what we use and what does/doesn't work for us along with the differences between manually inflating, self inflating, and foam. We also talk about the R value, what you need to think about when shopping for a pad, the pros/cons, and some of the various companies you can find gear from. Rest assure, it sounds boring but there's a lot of bad humor and giggling to ease the dryness of the subject.
