Ah I was using my dad’s old Hollywood rack from the late 80s. Got bought one of these at Xmas and it’s bloody great (as the plastics can attest to). #rackchat

It’s very difficult to find one that can take bikes AND attach a trailer for when you head to the lake at the same time. Do you have any stories about racks and motorboating?

i want one of these saris ones

Ours is like that but a less jazzy colour. Takes 3 bikes, fastens to the rear

I used to have one of those - and gave it to my next door neighbour as it was taking up space

I have a towbar mounted rack now - its awesome - you can slide it out of the way to open the boot, load up time is greatly reduced, and it has the number plate and lights built in to avoid getting pulled over by the fuzz

yeah but £££

My dad has a Thule towbar rack. It’s bloody great. Also has a lovely one that fits on the back of his vw campervan. #rackchat

yeah - but it’s one of those things I don’t regret spending £££ on. I’ve more or less forgotten what it all cost now anyway (had to fit a towbar to the car too) - but I still reap the sweet benefits every time I use it

Mine is an Atera one. #rackchat

we have one of those
well, a 2 bike one
works great

I use sea suckers, HTH.

I use http://www.viamichelin.com to work out routes. You can click on cycle and walk as well as car. And it gives you two or three different route choices. And, having been using it for years, more often to cycle to areas I don’t know so well time has shown it to be very accurate.

long shot but did any of you wankers get a 30% off rapha code i could nab?

Not yet, but will whack across if I do get one
