Is that the same one Mike Hall used for his Round the World Record ride?
EDIT: Probs
Mike camped out a lot and was delighted with the tent choice that he made.
“The tent was one of the best pieces of equipment I’ve ever used,” he says. “It was a Nemo Gogo Elite which is pretty much a bivvy bag with an inflatable hoop. It uses an air beam with an integrated pump.
“You blow into this bag and then squeeze the bag and it amplifies the pressure you can get, so you can blow it up in 20secs. It’s almost as light as a bivvy bag and you get fully enclosed to keep the rain and midges out.
"I took a Rab sleeping bag that had down on only one side to make it superlight and packable, the thinking being that you squash the down you are lying on anyway and you use a good air mat. I used Nemo's Zor mat."
