Festival tent and ideal for touring September 28, 2008
Pupp (Hampshire)

I bought this tent earlie this year to take to Glastonbury. I rode my motorbike there and needed a single tent that would fit in my backpack with everything else I was bringing along.
The pack size was unbelieveably small and lightwieght, which was excellent.
Being a smaller tent at the festival, I managed to find a suitable sized pitch for it in no time: It doesn't require thesame amount of square ground space as all the dome tents there. I pitched next to a distinguishable flag and it was safe the whole time.
The headroom was ample for me to sit upright in. The small porch made a good secure dry place to put my boots overnight. The outer sheet was surprisingly larger than the inner, and was really low to the ground, whichmeant a lot of things could be stashed overnight without having to hold it all in the tent.
Nobody tripped over it, thanks to the bright yellow guyropes. When it got windy and rainy on the first night, not a drop came through and it was very warm to sleep in.
Packing back into the litle kit bag was easy.
After theestival, I put the tent up in my mums garden to dry it out. Her dalmation jumped on it and split a pole. It was hard to find a replacement pole the right size and even harder to find a campng shop that was any use. They said they had fixed it, but they hadn't.
I have since bought another Gelert solo in order to have all the spares I could need. At 22 it is an absolute bargain and withstands the toils of welsh countryside and generally wet and windy summer we have had.
Ideal for mototrcycle tourers / adventurers.Highly recommended.
