You need a three person tent for 2 people. Winter months are a good time to buy. Check REI, Campmor, EMS, and others. I like a free standing tent with two poles, tend to favor Eureka. Main thing is pack size. Not many tents have poles short enough to fit in a side case. Yeah, and get aluminum poles.
I have a eureka backcountry that i like very much. keeps me dry and packs down to something like 5 x 15. Works great on the bike, even fits in a side case. I used to use the eureka timberline which is a great tent but the poles make it too long to fit in a side or top case. If you don't mind strapping gear on though, that tent is absolutely my all time favorite.
For two people, I suggest a four man tent. My 3 person Big Angus, complete with two vestibules, works fine for me and my gear; don't know how I'd fit a second person and their gear inside.
I remember at the RA Rally you had a LOT OF STUFF!
I'm thinking a 3 person "something" will be my next tent. Strap it on in lieu of a top case and good to go.
