Which tent and camping mat

[DaveS]

If I'm going to start attending a few events again I need to refresh my stuff.

So any recommendations on a tent that's Khan Biker size but packs down smaller. Looking for something good quality that will last.

Also any recommendations on a good mat? I have a thermarest basecamp xl, but I still find it uncomfortable and cold!

Tents not too sure. Sleeping mat has to be exped down inflatable. Expensive but warm and comfy. I've got a down 9 and it's great.

I use the Robbens Voyager 3.
Smaller and lighter than the Kyam.Its a Tunnel tent so its lower than the Kyam. Its rock solid in storms,100 % waterproof even in nasty rain,got a decent size porch too. A bit lighter and packs down a lot smaller then the Kyam biker i had

I,m thinking of going down the same road with a smaller tent as well.
Been looking at the vango banshee 200.

Thanks all off to research those options.

For the Exped Downmats try Tamarack Outdoors. They always have offers on and will usually give 15-20% discount. Ask for Sally or tony and feel free to say Austin put you onto them, but not that I promised the discount just that I recommended them and that they always do a good price .

Tents...... SteveT has a great tent up for sale and although I have expressed interest if you want it don't wait for me to make my mind up. ( I am away at the mo and can't think about whether I want it or not properly).

That a very good point.
Its taken about 4 years to recover.

I remember feeling a little green around the gills when we were on the isle of skye, and I'm sure it was Chad that recommended I have a rusty nail or something like that. I felt instantly better!

Ah yes, the Nail

I remember introducing the Nail to Chad on the Haggis run.
Obviously made an impression on him

When Vader and I done the Austrian winter mountain rally ,i thought I was comfy on a therma rest. But my Lobotomised Pet German had a checkered dog blanket the ones with a reflective coating on the floor face to cover the inside of the tent and a therma rest that was luxury it was like stepping into the ritz brilliant idea.
