Excellent idea to have the extra room and bike out of sight. I have a Wingman on the road Toucan tent which is the opposite of this- basically just to sit up in and sleep but it’s so robust and everything is in one package and suits my needs. Each to their own! Keep up the good work missy 👍🇬🇧

That is a great design. I've been looking at various tents and the LoneRider was on my shortlist. You've provided a lot of info there. I should stop faffing about and just get one!

I also chose a mototent. Same style as yours. I bought it for the same reasons you did. Of course it’s a bit heavier than most, but I think worth it’s weight. I also went with 2 nice sized goose down blankets to go on my full-sized air mattress. It’s nice to be comfortable because as im older the bod really benefits from 1 day of riding then 2 days of r&r. Love it. Now with that planning, means you need more supplies, food & water. It’s been tough deciding what has to stay at home to save weight. It’s all a compromise. Great vid - new watcher.

A good night sleep whilst camping is worth its weight in gold

That's a really good summary of your tent! Vango also made a series of motorcycle tents which are virtually the same design as the LoneRider Tent, the Vango Stelvio, the Vango Turini and the Vango Tour 200, I own the Tour which I bought new for £150 on a sale. As far as can tell, none are available new now, but regularly turn up on Ebay or Marketplace and are substantially cheaper to buy. The Stelvio and Turini had sensible muted colours, the Tour is a garish bright blue. The Vangos all appear to be the same size and my Tour swallows up my 3 box Triumph Sprint. Once closed up, there is nothing that shouts out 'motorbike tent'. The differences between the tents is that Vango dumbed down the specs, the Stelvio has the best specs and weighed 6.6kg and the Tour the worst which weighs a whopping 9.3kg, of which the fiberglass poles on the Tour are the main culprits, all have a full size ground sheet for the garage area which can be left behind to save weight. So a trade off really, the Vango Tents are much cheaper but all are heavier than the LoneRider, substantially so for the Tour. I also park my tent on the pillion seat as I travel alone normally.

This makes sense. When living out of saddle bags, it's nice to access them without getting rained on.

I has a friend who bought their LoneRider on a 0% card, then paid it off monthly instead of booking hotel rooms for trips. After 4 months, it was paid off which I thought was quite a clever idea. I suppose it only works if you're travelling already though and spending £££ in hotel's , if you're looking to start with little budget it's a not really going to be too helpful

Great video - I just returned from a tour in Scotland and your videos motivate me to do more touring. Quick tip regarding putting your tent away- with the tent laid out evenly, fold it in half, then use the tent poles (+pegs too if you want) to roll it up (so they will be in the middle). A friend showed me this and I haven't had to fight to put away a tent since. Best wishes

Very interesting observation about the biking community having a fairly large percentage of dyslexic/learning difficulties. I had never noticed that. I love the idea of a tent with a bike garage. My biking tent is so different from yours it is unreal. It is tiny, and weighs less than one kilo. But my situation is very different from yours. I am male, and live in the south of Spain. I try to avoid using it if there is any sign of rain. However, I am considering getting a slightly bigger tent that maybe weighs 2 kilos. Mine is hard to erect, and difficult to get in and out of. (And I am not getting any younger, an OAP). I am impressed that such a new rider has done so much touring in such a little time. Well done. Can I recommend Spain as a destination for you? Los Picos de Europa in the north of Spain are only an hour or so from Santander ferry port. And the coast is lovely. Motorcycling paradise.

Nice one Saffy, another good vid. I understand your thinking on the tent.

I went on to get a degree in engineering and now own my own engineering company. I was bullied and told that I was thick as a kid.

Loved this review, thinking about getting this tent for next year when I do the Nc500 again. May I suggest the oxford RoK Straps for holding your gear down 😁😁

I have this tent and use it a number of times. Every time I apprecaite the extra space provided for changing cloth, sitting under a shelter for all sorts of weather. I find it a lot more difficult to set it up in high wind conditions where a second pair of hands would be absolutely great help but its "doable" in 30 min... Once everything pegged down I experience zero issue at all. The down side is the fact that its not free standing so I am considering its ADV tent siblings in addition, however I am not sure if I really could trade the garage space for free standing feature...

I was wandering about the tent its quite large to take on a bike. I have done a lot of touring on a push bike and preferred a tarp with a tiny tent it gave me the weather protection, plus the added bonus of being able to see around, as a bloke that felt more secure. Looking into taking the cbt for trips around the UK at a bit more speed than on a push bike, just dreaming between full time work and study atm.

There's definitely an art to slumming it in mother nature 😃

Great video. One of the better ones - I've watched about 5 on this tent - but none of the show how easy/hard it is to put the bike in as the whole point of this tent is to put the bike in it. Now, if you put the bike in so it will lean away from the sleeping compartment and not fall on top of you in the night, how easy is it to maneuver the bike into the bike area? I'd only buy one of these tents in order to put my bike into it so it's kind of the most important bit for me. Again, great video

Aha yes! I'm dyslexic and have auditory processing issues :) It's the number one reason I often name words incorrectly or rather strangely :D

I don't camp anymore, it's hotels for me now. Worn out five tents over the years and other camping gear. But I still use bungy cords and this for fifty years, never had any problems with those. I never used side or top cases always a tank bag and a carry bag on the back. The only way to travel with a bike.

I never understood why they have poles. Surely we could get rid of those and have it with an airframe. Lighter, and having a small little air compressor to not only put the tent up with minimal effort but also to blow tyres up whilst touring would surely be a better mechanism. The tent could even have more air frame parts so it's more sturdy and just needs to be anchored to the ground (which it needs to have done anyway). Always thought they missed a trick with that.

As someone who hates instructions and don't have the attention span to read and follow them, that tent looks the best for that 😂

to be fair just being a guy means instruction issues lol they can go in the bin great video recently found your channel enjoying what u do ride safe

👍👍👍👍

All those little useability features you describe on the tent bag.. yes they are ground breaking! 😀 I mean wouldn't it suck if any were not there?

I like this tent but can't see it surviving an half decent storm, my Vango Omega 350 suffered some damage to one set of it's poles, still bent out of shape to this day but still usable. It's a fairly large tent for motorcycle use, I don't like tents that you have to crawl into.

Cool straps. Where did you get them?

Well done Saffy. Good vid. I'm off to buy one now......are you still running the patreon? Signed up last week but it's not been updated for a while?

Are there any black pegs for the black 2 poles? The tour 200 tent is lighter and cheaper I've used one for 6 years. My Scotland tour saw yellow 2 warning and non stop rain and it was OK.

Hello, Can you do a video, on what cooking you do when camping, what stove and utensils. As I’m thinking off motorbike camping in Wales🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 , I now have a tent, wingman of the road. Cheers

Interesting and enjoyable take on things, thanks. The moto tent is tall and doesn't look very aerodynamic. How well does it cope with high winds?

It was quite loud in the wind but overall I didn't notice much difference

Good to know, thanks. My last tent got blown into the middle of next week in John O'Groats, so I'm a bit paranoid about high winds. PS Great score with the ferry cabin - well played!!

I think having a tent you can stand up in is super useless

I am thinking about getting into Moto-camping. Though for the start, I would only visit camping sites. (So no need to park the bike in the tent) Do you think that the extra height and communal space of the tent compared to others is still worth the price? 500+€ is a steep price for a tent. I am currently torn between "I dont want to spend a thousand euros on my whole equipment for something I only want to try out. I would not know how much of that money I could get back if I sell that stuff" and "If I like camping, there is the old rule of 'Buy cheap, buy twice'"
