bivvi bags and bashas

[nick crisp]

I've tried bivvy bags and personally didn't like the experience. Why do you want to try one? If it's to keep your luggage bulk to a minimum, there are some good tents out there these days that pack down pretty small, and are light enough for backpacking, and so will be no problem to carry on the bike.

The bivvy bag I have is this one, made of eVent fabric, which is highly breathable and fully waterproof. But I still found it pretty clammy.
