When I go camping with a car my favorite adjunct is a comfy chair for sitting outside. Now, on a bike, tiny tent, lightish gear, any ideas for a chair to suit? What do you use? I'm not a yogi so a rubber band to hold me in lotus position just won't do.
Thanks
Like you, I enjoy my comforts!
I started out with an "adapter" type thingy for my thermarest sleeping pad - it turned it into a chair that sat on the ground.
It was OK, comfort wise, if a little unstable. It was certainly light. However, I eventually decided that I wanted a chair off the ground. Damp ground meant that my sleeping mat was damp, I thought that using the mat outside the tent exposed it to more risk of puncture and it was a faff at the end of the day (especially in the dark) to convert back for sleeping.
When I did go looking for a chair I wanted one where the legs wouldn't puncture a footprint/groundsheet. I settled on the Alite Mayfly. It works fine, is more comfortable and is usable in all but the soggiest ground.
It weighs in at just under a kilo (I think) but is well worth it to me - my camping is often in less than bright, sunny weather.
