Default Tent

Anyway got any advice for buying a tent?

This is the bag I am thinking of getting:
http://www.gandermountain.com/modper...C&merchID=4006

It's really small and would go on the bike easy.

Thinking of getting this pad for the same reason, Pro Lite Regular:
http://www.gandermountain.com/modper...7&merchID=4006

I been really looking at the MSR Hubba Hubba because of the small pack size and how light it is, but don't really want to pay that price.

Saw this Kelty at Gander that looked to pack up in a small size and was light:

Yeah, I saw one, one time at this place and it looked good and was interesting.

Details are needed douchebags, like brand and model and such.

go to campmor.com. They have about the lowest prices on all camping stuff.

Here is the tent I have and always use for backpacking. Really light, easy to set up even when it's dark, pretty cheap.

I would post a tent for trip, but he'd probably get all pissy about it.


Got to a military outlet store. If it's good enough for the military. Its good enough for you.

For the air mattress, get a Big Agnes Air Core. Accept no substitute. 2 1/2" thick and packs to the size of a water bottle.

That Kelty tent looks good. I went with the Eureka 2xta and it's basically the same design. It's been everywhere and I love it.
