Texsport - Saguaro Bivy Shelter Tent with Full Fly (Case pack of 6)
Zandoval, I'm looking for a better tent for cycling but these seem pretty awesome. I'm in Alaska and it doesn't hurt to throw in a tent (and a bunch of other stuff) on the trunk of every vehicle you own. For example there is a single coastal road that separates the entire Kenai peninsula, Girdwood, and Whittier, from Anchorage and beyond. One rock slide can leave you stranded on the wrong side for a day or two depending on how big it is. I'm still going to look for a better cycling tent but I'm probably going to get a six pack of these for emergency kits.

If you prepare enough what other people call emergencies are just inconveniences
