Yep, get yourself a decent quality sleeping bag MBK. If you wear a pair of trackkies and socks, inside a decent sleeping bag, and pull a walking jacket over your head, you should be toasty in freezing temperatures. If your going to do lots of biking weekends where you camp, it'll be worth the investment. You'll get a decent sleeping bag for about the same as one night in a B&B would cost you.

Alternatively I'm sure you could recruit somebody to climb in there with you and keep you warm (I'm happily married, sorry).
