I thought this was photoshop but apparently not!

Whatever will they think of next? I am really hoping that these will take off.
Just imagine the entertainment to be had by watching the owners trying to get in and out of the tent, especially after a few jars. Perhaps they come with a BMW approved step ladder. Obviously the equivalent for Gold Wing owners will be even bigger and classier.

Just checked to make sure and no, it doesn't appear to be an April fools prank.

What a stupid idea! Can you imagine climbing in and out of that?
In some of the shots you can see an extra steady stand which looks quite heavy, why would you want to carry all that around?

They'd certainly get laughed out of the Dragon's Den with that idea and, rightly so.

That would certainly make the bike sink into soft ground like camp sites as to stability...... :shock:

That has to be a wind up.

Hehe, if you delve around the website it seems to be designed to cater for people who have run out of things to spend their money on

Yeh, anything over 20mph and you'd be all over the place.

Besides being a stupid idea, I don’t think it would work.
A tent uses the floor for support.
They are using a tent as a hammock, it would just fold up if you managed to get into it!
