go out doors has some good deals on tents an there sleeping bags r a good deal too i be useing back pack an will c bout getting a small tent to strap on bike
well I bought a tent last year online from nevis sport for 20 quid which did me all year and never leaked. I went a bit mad and bought a gelert sleep pod sleeping bag mainly coz I hate sleeping bags and this one at least allowed me to turn over inside it :)oh and an airbed coz im owd and a bit of a wuss! lol
and I also use throw overs and bin bags and bungees...what did we do before bungees? lol
you can get an adaptoer that plugs into your bike battery omnf chick or someone else will probably have one
also would just say that a blanket over airbed keeps it farr cosier as airbeds dont hold any heat as such ..... if you get me... put sleeping bag on top of blanket then
you be suprised what yuo can fit on bike you may not need a backpack... i put tent, double airbed, doubel sleeping bag, my bag with stuff for weekend bt dont take much and that is it away ya go ... i aint got any panniers or anthing just a rack for rallies etc
so long as tent width is not wider than ya bars width ya will be fine
if taking cookin stove etc then paniers is good for that...
I have a backpacking airbed. 6 air tubes, each takes about three breaths to blow up, packs down to sod all. And if one tube goes down I still get a good nights kip. Cost about £15. Try amazon or a good camping shop. I'm not a fan of wearing a rucksack on a bike, much better idea to bungee it across the back seat with your tent.
lol Suzie - its erm .....a bit phallic! lol and yes it was pricey but its been great packs up easy and not likely to get punctured coz it travels in its case
yeah kwakgirl that was what i thought coz teh last 3 airbeds ive had ended up wi darn holes somewhere and i wondered if its coz i jus put it flat on me rack wi stuff on top bungee blah blah... bt that one looks like its madeof thicker stuff tooo
may have to go take a look at some proper places me thinketh- plus its in that case which looks good too.. does it go back in easy? and is it fairly wide as i like to stretch me legs about a bit ... no mummy style sleepin bags fer me!!!
well its a single but yes packs up dead easy...I don't do mummy style sleeping bags either - have a gelert sleep pod....im a bit of a wuss when it comes to camping lol
Wenders, I have swapped my hols so got the whole week off now :) let me know what help you mite need, ferrying gear etc and I will sort it for you. Let's hope its half as good as last time and it will be a blast !
