Hi all from South Africa.

Seems I got it a bit wrong, and the text did not come through with the photo, my apologies.

Anyhow, I'll go again.

I Salvaged these two tents from our local municipal refuse collection site a couple of weeks ago.

They where offered to me for ZAR120 and I bit hook, line and sinker!

Both tents are in pristine condition and complete, with all pegs and pole sections... Not even the rubbers are perished, and are both waterproof (did the garden hose test)

One tent is a Marachel Cyclometur 101 300 and the other is a Marachel Cyclometur 101 100.

I am quite passionate about ridge tents and would like to have more information about these two little delightful & well designed and fabricated tents.

I believe they are over 40 years old, and consequently, are absolutely perfect for a pre 70's retro / vintage theme pitch.

Please, if anyone has some input please reply, all input would be very welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Warren.

I have quite a few more photo's that I will try to upload onto this topic shortly
