Tent - with a garage for your bike?!
 
Ok so I've just come across a 2 man tent ... with a garage!!

It's called the Vango Turini 200 Touring Tent and is sold at go outdoors in the UK.

This is a possibly buy for my travels however it is 6.6kg which isn't exactly great! But hey, thought I'd share it and see what everyone thinks!

I've seen the hubba hubba but at £300 it's a stretch outside of my budget :(

I will most likely go for the vango mirage 200 as it has the freestanding option as well as the pegged option so when needs must I can set up on a grim concrete or stone base. It's half the price of the hubba too :D

Personally, I would only consider one of those if I were setting up a base camp in a rainy climate for weeks at a time. But for active travel? Never. Too heavy (especially if packed wet), too large packed up and it isn't free-standing. But keep in mind that I greatly value traveling light so that I can move around easily, quickly carry luggage up to hostels, and go anywhere (including some places that don't have roads).
