Last minute "recommend me a tent for the AR"
Still yet to purchase a tent so it will have to be from Millets or the likes.
Can anyone recommend a tent that's light weight yet spacey for sleeping and bike gear? Cheers

Those sort of shops are much of a muchness for tents, Whichever one you go to will have a similar range so it's a straight size vs weight choice.

Re: Last minute "recommend me a tent for the AR"
Mine cost £24 and came with two sleeping bags and 2 ground mats. It's survived about 10-20 camping trips, so super cheap tents will do! Having said that, it's never been in a downpour, so I expect me and Spank will be swimming out of it come Saturday morning.

Halfords do relativeley good value ones. Seen 3 body tents for 40 quid. Go to the nearet place to you whatever shop. Don't muck about just get one with an inner and outer layer.

Don't bother with cheap crap you'll be chasing it down from trees as soon as there's a poofters fart of wind.
We've got a vango omega 250, spot on, massive porch, packs up reasonably well, pitches in minutes, solid in the weather.
