Is this for brief (few hours) rally sleeping or for multiple day use? If it's for things such as the BBR I used to use a couple of different types of bivi bag, one flat zipped gore-tex bag then a Snugpak Stratoshpere single hooped bivi bag. I then went down the route of purchasing a cheap (£12) single skin, twin poled, sewn in groundsheet tent from ebay/Amazon. Quality ain't great but I gave it a spray with dome Fabsil the week before and it was only ever for a few hours single night's use.
The advantage is you can quickly dive inside with your helmet and gear then get your head down without being squeezed into a bag or even sit and re-plan the next day's route if you need to. During the 2016 BBR I slept in a field less than a mile away from a 24hr fuel station near Hale in Cornwall then bundled it up, rode back to the fuel station and chucked it in a bin

I moved away from the bivi bags because it's nicer to sit up in the dry instead of crawling inside a claustraphobic bag, especially if it's also chucking it down when you're thinking of moving on as you can put all your gear back on in the dry. Here's the sort of thing I buy now:

Or one like this if you prefer to be less conspicuous:

Like I mentioned in my first post their waterproofing isn't fantastic but a quick spray with some Fabsil will sort this.
