indecisiveness

[deird1]

I have two images in my head.


One is of me, down at Philip Island, riding my bike alongside my two adorable nephews, both riding the bikes they got for Christmas. How fun! And auntyish!

The other is of my bike dropping off the back of my car halfway down the freeway to Philip Island, being horribly crushed by the car behind me, and reduced to a couple of bits of twisted metal for me to mourn over.


...at 6pm this evening, whichever image seems more probable to me at that instant will dictate whether I take my bike down to Philip Island or not.

As long as you have a bike rack, you should have no worries. We used to cart bikes all over the place on our car.

Obviously, you need to get out your toolkit, and dismantle your bike so it will fit *inside* the car.
Problem solved!
Then, you can play 'Let's put Aunty Mez's bike back together!' with the boys. :-D

Strapping the bike very securely should help.

I'm assuming your rack is one that straps on to the hatch of your car.

Just make sure all the straps are tight, and just keep checking your mirrors.

If they're not tight enough, you'll notice the wobbling bike fairly quickly. I know because it's happened to me before!
