    another tarp opinion question...but for motorbike camping

    Currently using a mac cat deluxe with a WBBB and looking for some more coverage for my motorcycle gear as this past 5 day trip left some of my stuff exposed/wet. Was looking at some larger rectangular models as weight and size not a huge consideration as Im not carrying it by human power and already have the hex. Im typically a 3 season hanger, doors not necessary (I dont think).

    So far have researched the mamajamba, big daddy, trailduster and OES rectangular.

    Trailduster seems to have a slight hex/rectangle shape which in my amateur assessment may provide what im looking for.

    Thanks for any advice on shape/size.

    I have an Aqua Qwest large sil nylon guide tarp. I think it is 11'x13'. I get excellent coverage and can stow all my moto gear under it. It helps to use some bungie tie loops and extra cord to keep it wide at the bottom. I was able to cook under mine in rainy conditions.

    I've been thinking along these lines as well. I have a BB and a Superfly for my shelter and am probably going to get one of those poncho/tarps to put over the bike and it's stuff.
