Whether you are walking, riding a
bicycle, a motorcyclist or
driving a car - space and weight is a significant
challenge for the camper. There are literally thousands of high
quality items available and much of it claims to be light weight. In
many cases though this is not the case. A 5 Kg tent is not my idea of a
lightweight hiking tent - so LiteKamper.com
provides some examples and comparisons of light weight options. Check out what is
available before you start shopping. Good planning will
literally save kilos from your load.
When size really does matter.
