    Bias is just terrible!!!!!

    Hey everyone

    Just wanted to give a warning to those interested in bias to heed to my caution. This past weekend I used my xl for the first time. Here is the MAJOR problem...... I slept through breakfast on both mornings!!!!!

    In all seriousness I slept better in it than the other hammocks I'm tried. Give these guys a try its great stuff

    Re: Bias is just terrible!!!!!

    I was worried for bias... I love their gear and didn't want them to have a bad review... Glad you liked it... All trails serve breakfast all day so I think you should be fine...

    I'd send it back. No way at all you should be missing breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day! Especially if it includes bacon. And it should always include bacon.

    I've never been camping that I wasn't up at dusky dawn stoking a fire, getting ready to hike or enjoy the day ... till I started hammock camp. I'm comfortable, I'm warm and I can fix my breakfast right from the hammock. If I ever did hike the AT ... I'd never do it in a hammock BIAS or otherwise. I'd never get the trail done starting at 9 or 10 am!

    If I may, I suggest the bacon wrapped bacon for brunch. It sticks to your ribs a bit longer.
    It'll be alright Friday!

    Turns out as I believe he is happy with it. At least I think so. I'm just worried about my breakfast. Yes bacon raped bacon is a good start for any meal. I am working on bakeing on a candy coating of pure maple syrup to round it off. All cooked from the hammock. Can't wait till I get mine. Happy day
