Dream Bike Carrier?

At first thought maybe... But it's hardly economical and can't drive to trails up fire roads (or most likely even over the curb to get to them) so no thanks! Think this explains the poor choice of bike on said carrier! Sticking out tongue

If you can afford that, why not splurge on an extra Hilux or something?? Crazy world.

Yeah...what little-ditty said. Is that guy for real? Looks ridiculous.

I don't get the point of having a road bike and then driving somewhere to ride it - there's frigg'n road all around it's not like its hard to find.

It's also not like there is a sub-culture of Downhill Road Riders or Freeride Road Riders or Trials Road Riders and it's not like there is some really cool sniggle road somewhere - there is road around every corner. Why not us it.

Perhaps he's off to a race that happens at a specific place?
Perhaps he'd rather ride along the coast when he lives in a suburban area?

like the rear lane entrance of a bike shop in bondi junction. if it is then i cant blame them for putting the bike on the car. road riding round there gave me the shits and is way too dangerous. it caused me to quit untill i moved up to the northern beaches. now i'm in biking heaven! Smiling (unless you compare it to canada, usa, europe,nz etc etc)

Doesn't this really come down to the fact that you'reall jealous that he drives a Lambo?

Personally, if that was my car, I wouldn't give a to$$ what anyone thought about about my bike, where I rode it or how I moved it around.

Just putting it out there Eye-wink

Aren't Trabants a steal monocoque shell? You'd just weld the rack on

GAZZA's picture

i believe they were made from papier macher so i could get some old newspapers and wallpaper paste and add a bikerack on wherever i wanted!
