if you sometimes use a roof rack for your bikes.....

[mckenzie]

..... stick a large notice on your dashboard to remind you that they are there!

We saw a guy drive his safira into a car park on the edge of Elveden Forest yesterday, under the height restriction, forgetting about the bikes he was carrying on the roof!

We felt so sorry for him . The bike rack was damaged and it looked like the roof of the car was damaged too. Goodness knows if the bikes themselves were okay.

ooops!

We have a bike holder on the rear of the car, and luckily would not have the same problem.
Have to be careful with reversing into car park spaces though!

We saw someone do that in trearddur bay, anglesey last year, it made a right mess of the bikes and roof rack. God knows how he got them home. Good Idea about the sticker tho, I have just bought a zafira and I think it will be to tall for multistories with the roofbox on. I need to check.
I use a tow bar mounted bike rack.
