droo Posted July 23, 2014 Share A great pearl of wisdom I learned (at the cost of a few peoples bicycles+garage doors) If you do use a roof rack. When your bike is on top of your car, put your garage door remote in the cubby-hole (or "glove compartment" for some refined folk). Get home. "Where's my damn remote" , "Oh, bike on roof". "Thanks random Hubber guy" The other trick I've heard of is to hang a red flag off your rearview mirror. Then it'll work for other peoples' driveways and mall parking lots too. I've got a towbar mounted one though, which means I don't have to worry. The only issue I have is that my car weighs almost nothing, so if I've got two MTBs on there handling can get a bit sketchy at speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigCCW Posted August 1, 2014 Share I have a Saris Bones 2, which retails for around R2000. http://www.buycycle.co.za/en/accessories/off-the-bike/bike-racks/saris-en-2/saris-bones-2-cycle-boot-rack-grey.html Unfortunately it would have cost me R5000 to get a towbar fitted to my car, so I decided to rather get the Saris, and have been very happy with it since.
