Just been in Tesco, they have double skin 2man dome tents for £25 and a whole selection of other cheap camping kit. I'm going to give the tent a go as I want to do a bit of cheap touring on the RT.
Worth checking out, but Remember to take your helmet off in the store though!

i've had about three of these now. they're good for one or two uses, then want chucking - the poles snap and go floppy, the flaps tear and the stitching goes. still, for the price, not bad value for money at all!

Good for bike holidays in France...............
Leave the tent over there, and fill the stuff-sack with bottles of Calvados for the trip home

I hate when you get floppy poles and ripped flaps.......
Yeah I have used them myself and if you think of them as disposable they're really good!!
