bedfordbiker 0 Posted August 9, 2011 ello guysAs I'm starting to go to more motorcycle rallies these days I thought it's about time I bought a decent tent that doesn't let the water in or leak everywhere!If any of you guys can recommend a tent that's good in rain and heavy snow that'd be great!I was thinking of a good old Vango Force Ten but I think I should be looking at something more affordable..Cheers!

fr499y 0 Posted August 9, 2011 i can highly recommend Vango tents as there compact when bagged up ( will easily fit in a top box ). not the cheapest at about £70+ depending on model. I have the Beta 250 ( i think its the beta ) which is a 2-3 man tent and we can stick two in a large top box Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lee1 1 Posted August 9, 2011 got one of these had it over a year now,very good for the money http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Eurohike-2-man-tent-Brand-new-Bargain-/150643636077?pt=UK_SportsLeisure_HikingCamping_Tents_JN&hash=item23130f776d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner 0 Posted August 9, 2011 ive got one of these for sale http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/hi-gear-zenobia-6-p148235 might be a tad big for the bike though,it weighs about 20 kilos .on the positive side you could use one bedroom as a garage and pull some massive wheelies on the waywith that on the back.

RichardH 0 Posted August 9, 2011 I'm going to the fairly well endowed rally nr Barnsley the weekend and i can thougherly recommend my tent, Only joking, best thing is to take a look around a rally and see what others are camping in, find out what Dave has and NEVER buy one!

nickerbelly 0 Posted August 9, 2011 If you don't have any joy elsewhere, you could try OutdoorWorldDirect.co.uk as they have a lot of deals on at the moment and you could get something quality that would usually be above your price range! I would say take a look at Gelert tents as they are usually very good quality and in my experience are quick and easy to erect too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
