1 motorbike and 5 people? thats a neat trick, better get a sidecar to go with it.

As things stand right now my BOV is my normal everyday car - our gear is ready , we know where we will be going , we will treat it as another road trip type adventure....I have no leeway in acquiring another vehicle simply as a BOV....and the BOV I want would immediately attract attention anyway.

Suffice to say - the cars ready , the gears ready , we're ready.
No doubt it will be 'ditched' at some point anyway - preferably undercover at the BOL.

Moving by vehicle once you've settled in at the BOL after tshtf will highlight you as a target to others , all movement in/around should be done on foot preferably to help opsec.

Just me but I would drive a 911 Turbo given the choice before a SHTF event. I can understand driving a shed if you have no other choice or have no interest in cars, but sacrificing your normal life for a 'what if' does not fit with my own thoughts. I have not found myself any need to sacrifice a good life for me and the family in order to Prep.

If I sold my family vehicle for a beat up 4x4 or rusty saloon the misses would think I had lost the plot (she does anyway, Been looking for a Longline LSV to commute to work in for ages)

I think Prepping should be about risk assessment also. Getting your mortgage or loans paid off so that should anything happen to you then your family will be finacial sound with a roof over there head is better Prepping than for a SHTF event. You have to weigh up the relative risks based on your situation and location.

For me I treat Prepping as a hobby. Learning about plants, distilling water, explosives etc. Buying the Bug In/Bug Out kit as money allows.

Mine is my boat.

This would do me - especially static and camd up in the heart of a forest , and near a decent water supply.

Mines a Jinty 060 tank locomotive, I reckon the only or best place to be when we start to rebuild is alongside preserved railway lines that have access to coal and navigable rivers. Soon get trade up and running with even a simple preserved line linking the sea with inland.
