OK its just too quiet here and I received a new tent today so I have to tell somebody about it. I have been looking for a deal on a new one to replace my 20 year old Coleman backpacking tent. I was lucky enough to find a Eureka Mountain pass 2XTE on the Eureka outlet page for 84 dollars + shipping.  The new tent is 4 inches wider and 4 inches longer than my old Coleman.  It also has 2 doors and 2 vestibules and packs small enough to carry in one of my saddle bags. I will let you know how well it works right after the first moto camping trip in early April... Wooooo Hooooo I love a deal........

I really do like the added space, I lock my hard bags on the bike, but its nice to have added dry storage inside the tent. I also like the fact with the new tent I can get inside the tent when its raining without having water run off the fly and down my back.
