I just returned from using my BD winter bivy sack while cycling through France for 2 weeks and it worked very well. I DID NOT USE A TENT, ONLY THE BIVY SACK. It is very roomy and lightweight!
As with all water resistent, breathable materials, it allows for condensation to form in cool temps when the humidity is high but it dries very quickly. It worked very well in the rain and was easy to get in and out of. I am very pleased with it.
Thank you!
