I did quite a bit of camping when I was in college on various geology field trips. I had a pup tent. It rained on the inside (condensation only, no leaks). All the single layer tents had the issue regardless of size, but the bigger ones weren't as bad. The double layered tents were better, but they were more bulky and there were still other issues/complaints that I can't recall off the top of my head. My favorite professor of all time, brought a sleeping bag and a tarp. He laid the tarp down, put the sleeping bag on it, got in and rolled up. He was dry as a bone every morning, even if it rained. I finished that first field trip by just leaving the tent flat and rolling up in it. From that point on, I never packed a tent ever again...tarp only! BTW, he wasn't your typical college professor. He had a full career as an oil industry geologist. He retired from that and taught geology for fun. Awesome guy!

My God, how is your bike so absolutely, postively, spotlessly clean???
