I am looking for suggestions for a good tent that I can carry on my bike for touring. I have a camping trip planned for the end of March in which I'll be cycling to Hereford, staying over for the weekend and cycling home. Also I am considering attempting the LeJOG sometime during the summer.
Currently my lightest tent is a small Vango tunnel tent which weighs in at a not so light 3.5 kg. I would be hoping to get something that weighs under 2kg ideally. Price, well anything under £100 would be great but I know that there may not be anything suitable and of good quality for that amount. My main requirement is that I have enough space to sit upright and comfortably take me + panniers.
At the moment the Vango Banshee 200 is looking the most suitable, just about the right size for me and at a good price. I did consider the Apex 200 but the flimsy-looking vent didn't appeal. I would appreciate other's thoughts on this though
