I have a cabanon biscaya 500 and am very happy with it, however after our last trip in The wettest weekend this year i have thought about a sun/rain canopy . Has anyone got any info on these and how easy they are to put up and how big when packed?
The canopy is really easy to add on to the Biscaya, it just zips on and is supported by guyropes/straps in the same way that the front of the Biscaya is. Size wise the canvas is small but you are carrying another set of poles, the same as you use to support the tent. it does give you some very useful additional space, we wouldn't be without ours.
I can't remember what we paid for ours, although I do remember we bought it from Forest Camping who were very helpful on the phone and sent it by post - sorry can't help further
