Are trumpeters less likely to go camping/doss on other people's floors than cyclists? Mind you having been woken by a piper on a couple of camping trips I can see why you wouldn't want trumpeters camping.

Probably not - but I *know* that there are URCers who may wish to buy a sleeping bag. I'm not certain about RMMTers.
I generally take a flute with me when I camp. I also take my trumpet and cornet mouthpieces in case I happen to stumble across the local brass band rehearsal in the village hall.

I'd not take my Uillean pipes with me on my cycle camping expeditions even though they are sweeter sounding than the Scottish bag pipes and/or a trumpet.

I'm a cyclist. And a camper. And a trumpeter.
Cycling and camping are a good mix.
Camping and trumpeting can mix, but only in the right environment ("Band Camp", for example).
Cycling and trumpeting don't mix well, due to the problem of keeping the instrument undamaged. I've never cycled to a band rehearsal, for instance.
However, cycling and trumpeting both result in an excellent lung capacity and a peak flow (of exhaled air)graph well in excess of what should be expected from someone of my age.

In my madder days as a student, I used to strap a double-case (trumpet and flugel) to the external frame of an old rucksack, and cycle to rehearsals and gigs.
I also knew somebody who had a "hack trumpet" for rehearsals which he slung over his back with a length of string in order to carry it whilst cycling.

Bah. Back in my student days, a fellow student routinely took his french horn around by bike. His trailer was the most unusual piece of equipment involved in that.
