Hiya from Mundaring
« on: July 30, 2011, 04:57:10 PM »
We have ordered our our new Camprite and delivery is Nov/Dec - still pondering over COLOUR!!!  as a new member of My Swag.org I have been having fun reading all the Camprite posts - lots of good stuff.  We are up-grading from a roof top tent

Camprite eh?... What a great choice  8)

I notice you had bikes on your BT50, did you get the bike rack on the Camprite?

Cheers

Hi pattyann and welcome.

That's a great and large looking rooftop tent.
Care to tell us how you found set up times, space etc.
Before we bought our own Camprite (2nd hand) we looked at some roortop tents but just wondered about some aspects.
Certainly a good way to camp off the ground though.

Not long to go now. What have you specified for the Camprite?

Cheers
Chris.

Thanks everyone for the friendly welcomes - we new we were onto a good camper as my Son-in-Law and Daughter own a Camprite.  We did want the bike carrier but Camprite don't do them any more. We are thinking of having the swing out arm [like Captain had] made up with a receiver hitch thingy welded on to take our Rola NV2 bike carrier???

The roof top tent is by Galaxy www.galaxyoutdoorcampers.com  a great roof top tent ,very roomy.  We didn't find it overly quick to put up and down hence upgrading to the camper.

G'day & Welcome.

Check out the bike carrier Laith made for his camprite, very practical.

Thanks - checked out Laith's bike rack - I can see by the photos that we can actually loosen and swing the legs of the ladder out of the way, which we thought would be a problem to carrying them on the back.  Things will much easier to do when we actually pick up OUR Camprite - DREAM ON!!
