Feeling camp.
I have not camped it up for many a year,(honest!) but in passing saw an advert on TV the other day which really made me think.
Basically this smallish roundish tent was held together and then thrown. As it moved through the air it all took shape and then simply needed some pegs near the base of it in to the ground. Has anyone seen this type of thing? Would one maybe have a small bag with some sort of plastic tubing that pushes together? I really am intrigued as it would appear so simple to put together and very possbily quite small to lug around on a bike. Maybe some of the AR06 peeps might be able to educate me as there were quite a few camp people on that. :P |

Click here (trust me )
no more erection problems 85cm * 85cm when packed - I think that would be a bit of an awkward shape to strap on the back of a bike.

85 x 85 - i think they are disc shaped when folded so not sure the practicalities on a bike?

You could always strap it to your back

Depending on how rich you are, these are not bad
