The Ultimate 'Best Solo Long-Term Cycle-Touring Tent' Survey
We know the criteria — weight, size, livability, waterproofness, colour, versatility, freestanding-ness, longevity — and we know which tents are on everyone's shortlist. There are always compromises, but the question is: which of these tents strikes the best balance and gets the most actual recommendations from experienced users?

This survey is a 2013 consensus vote for that 'best bet' tent; an informed decision made quickly for the individual who's off on a big solo bike trip and doesn't want to get bogged down comparing specifications and reviews, and has a bit of money to spend on good gear.

The results will be analysed, written up and published on my blog, tomsbiketrip.com, for the benefit of the long-distance cycle touring community.
If you had to recommend ONE TENT for a solo long-term cycle tour of indefinite length and location — 2-3 years round the world, for argument's sake — which would it be? *
Where are (or were) you based? *
This factors into tent availability, and it'll be interesting to see if location affects preference.

Completely optional. I'll drop you a single message when voting's over and the results are written up. Your address won't be used for anything else.
Thanks!
That's all — best to keep these things simple. Thank you for your input! More surveys to come on other key items of gear...
