If I have no need to be stealthy, I just lean my bike up against a tree. If I expect rain I might pull one of the dry bags off it to give me a...
There's now a minimum of five cinch buckles for a web order from onrope1.com. We must have been really annoying them because every other buckle in the category is minimum one still. Maybe we can...
Clamcleat who makes those linelok tensioners has a few rope tensioners that should in theory do the job. They aren't cheap though. It looks to be about $10-20 each. The CL253, 230, 223...
A warm pad might be easier. At 2+ pounds that's a bit heavy plus 6 AA batteries per night. I also saw a similar one just 25 inches wide and square listed at 7 pounds. It doesn't make a lot of...
Simple version. Claytor hammock, can use and I have pads. Need under/over/around quilt to replace 20 degree bag. I need input on:
JRB No Sniveler, Mt. Rogers, Hudson River
Speer Pea Pod, Frog...
http://www.rei.com/product/358151 looks very similar but maybe not as easy to get on and off the line. At 35 cents a piece I may throw a couple in with some other stuff I am looking at and try them...

Time to place your bets. I have my homemade test hammock setup outside for the first time. It is $1 bin ripstop whipped Warbonnet style. My first sewing project. I tried it out indoors last night...
I know this forum says "Long Distance Hiking with a Hammock," but please just read that as "Long Distance Biking with a Hammock" for this post. This really feels like the right area on the forums...
The Claytor is mine, all mine! And it's little tarp too. Now I all I need is a good suspension system and some common sense.

Wow I got the tarp already. Thanks for the quick shipping redbeard. I've only had a chance to pull it between some spots inside so far, but the tarp seems huge. I would never be able to tell it...
I am slowly putting my shelter together for a long distance bike trip. I plan on putting together a hammock once all the supplies finally get here. I don't want to make my own tarp unless there...
I was browsing through all kinds of different shelters yesterday and came across the Nemo Gogo. It's interesting Air beams system looked to be different. That got my thinking that this could be used...
