I've used my one hoop goretex bivi-bag for over 10 years, ranging from 3m to 3000m above sea level. I'm still here..........

Gas permaeable Goretex? FFS.... :blast
 
I've a single hoop 1 1/2 person tent, the inner and fly can stay connected and it goes up in a few minutes.

I like the idea of a Bivi but I reckon the reality is pretty shite when you've got wet gear to get of and a camp to make in the rain
 
I was looking at Coleman Pacific double bag the other day (£34 in the camping shop on A497 near Porthmadoc.

Lovely and big but may take up too much room on the bike
 
Found an old photocopy of the top two recommended bivi bags from Trail magazine 2005.
1st-Terra Nova Jupiter
2nd MACPAC Astro Cocoon.
Don't know if the scanned document will read OK but here goes ...

I just bought a Wild country sentinel reduced on the terra nova site to £60 from £100. I am sure the idea of this will be better than the reality and i will stick it in the garage with the rest of the tents I got fed up with once i have slept in the back garden one night soon. I should have bought one of the decathlon 1 1/2 man 1 Second pop up tents in France last week, reduced to just 24 euros , weigh 2.4kg and have a diameter of 57cm which i think is ok for the back of the bike.
