I have the Vango Delta 200. It works. But it's heavy and not that easy to carry on the bike. Best avoided. I'm gong to invest in a Banshee.

Dave - have a look at the ARTNW threads on Rideouts, the action happens at the end of April.. It stands for Annual Ride That Never Was, cos Ollie's Yorkshire thing beat me in a vote off. Not that I'm still p*ssed off, you understand

the more i think about it the more im going with my bivvi bag, it does me on exercise and packs down small and above it all i have it so no spending beer tokens on it


cheers though

I like my Vango Alpha 300... upgraded a bit ago because it was a tight fit with the airbed, but it packs down nearly as small. Perfect for bike trips, as it wasn't as wide as my panniers.

He'll be wearing it, with the visor down + pinlock of course

i am thinking of this one Zenith 2 Man Ultralight Tent but i cant find any reviews on it

I wouldn't go for that - looks a bit small (90 x 120 x 220 cm) for both man and kit. I'd say you'd be looking at least a two-man to be reasonably comfortable.
