Merci pour les conseils qui peuvent être appliquées en voyage à vélo. 😊

If the bevy did get a lot of condensation, or just wet inside from any cause, how did you balance letting it dry with the need to get back out riding? Especially when you got up it was still dark/cold.

Fortunately I didn't deal with too much condensation since I kept my head outside the bivy. However, there were a couple instances where I wanted to let it dry, so I would pack up my bivy in the morning as usual and then wait for a longer stop during the day (ex. a big lunch or resupply in town) where I would take the bivy out, flip it inside out, and let the inside of it air dry! This is also a benefit of doing period guest house overnight stays - to let your gear dry out while you're sleeping.
