Looks good, thanks. :thumb:

Get a waterproof bag that fits everything minus the tent poles. Those can be strapped to the outside of bike, might fit well on the handlebars or strapped to the frame.

25" poles are seriously long though. Might be a good idea to start looking into a different tent.

You might be able to find shorter pole sections of which more will total the same overall length. Worth checking out if you like the tent otherwise.

Well, this is a new unused tent that I had purchased to take on my motorcycling adventures. But since I've given up motorcycling, I repurposed it for my new thing which is bicycling. I think I can still return it if need be. I'll reevaluate it and see if I'd be willing to move to something else, thanks.
