I just bought an MSR Hubba Hubba for bike camping. It's not a cheap tent and you do need to buy the ground sheet separately (should be included IMHO). I love it here in Hawaii. It's for 2 but is very nice for one large guy.
We have really big centipedes here (think 4-6") so sleeping without a floor and a good seal is...um...not recommended. In any case I just went camping with it for the first time a couple of weeks ago and spent a couple of very comfortable nights. There were passing showers and the fly keep me dry while the inner portion, mostly mesh, kept me cool. I really like that it does have two door so you can leave on either side and because I stake out the fly on both doors I've got plenty of vestibule space. It's not incredibly light coming in just over 4 lbs fully packed, but as I'm a big guy already that's not an issue. I'm just over six feet and I had plenty of room. I also use a Hennessy Hammock when appropriate which I'm also very happy with.
