People riding on their own will be using normal camping tents (if they pack them with their luggage), but pretty much all the teams, especially corporate teams, will has huge tents.
speaking of - guess we should sign up for the buses, huh. how do they get your bikes back?
Inside your packet, you'll get a number tag to put on your bike. In Austin they'll load your bike into a Ryder-type moving truck to be driven back to your starting point, and you'll retrieve your bike with your number. Same thing with your luggage; you'll use your number to get it.
