There are times when crazy guy on a bike seems quite literally true, and sometimes people do seem to get into a competitive thing: who can suffer more pain and misery.
A shellter is for more than sleeping. Say you ride between 6 and 8 hours a day and you sleep for ten, that still leaves a fair number of waking hours. If the weather isn't cold and it's not raining then OK, but what if it's cold and it's been raining all day? Being stuck in a small tent is bearable, but in a hammock?
OK, maybe, for short trips, but for the long haul - i'm not convinced.
