Yes please!I'll get my son to film me next weekend.
I found this what is likely what would happen to me. And as you know scratching your car is a no-go for a German.

I did a test install on the driveway first, before mounting the rack on the glass roof. I also leave the thru-axel on the roof beside where I need to install it.
I've also installed the mounts so if I miss the mounts, the fork lands on the suction caps metal top bracket. I actually drilled new holes to ensure this happens. The bracket is pretty wide. And this has worked as well.

I will take your word on that .

This is exactly why we don't ride road bikes, wouldn't have happened with an emtbYes please!
I think he's a crane or forklift driverPerhaps it is easier because you are down under!
I have been loading loads of windsurfing boards and bikes in/on cars and vans and can not imagine how this is working without arms like a crane boom.
Watch out, space invaders second wave!Be good inside a Belly Button Softee. Not sure of if I would have jam or brown sauce

You asked for it. No forklifts, no cranes, no Arnie ....... Just me.Please share a video how this is handled.
Sorry about the video quality. It was nearly dark, and I was shooting into the sunset.
that I've seen for a while . I hope you were actually going cycling and didn't film it just for us . You're young so you are forgiven . Hope the backs OK

I got some new adapters and wanted to try them. The old ones were a bit tight.
As you could see. Perfect fit now. I think that was my all time record. 23 seconds to load.

Respect!I got some new adapters and wanted to try them. The old ones were a bit tight.

But I still believe it must have to do with you being down under - like your water whirlpool in the drain is rotating clockwise and not counter clockwise as in our hemisphere.

The top of a nearby mountain. 7 miles and 2800ft of climbing to reach the top.

Lake Jindabyne 2 weeks ago. Also in Australia's Alpine region. Part of the 1960's Snowy Hydro Scheme.
There's the old town of Jindabyne, under the water, just to the right of that island.

It's worse than that, the nights started drawing around the 12 June!
We're getting a week of half decent weather by the looks of it up my way. Put tent up today give it an airing for a few days. Maybe manage a sneaky night away in the van as well.
Edit Just tried putting tent up , abandoned midges bitten to bits on arms and face. That's East coast too

Setting sun over the south downs
Goodwood race course taken from the top of The Trundle on Wednesday.
The hill is famous for the Iron-Age hillfort on its summit called the Trundle (Old English: Tryndel, meaning "circle") from which the hill is now commonly referred.

A little 14 miler (approx ..as the mapping app turned itself off ) ..didn't want to do too much as there is a biggish ride planned for tomorrow with @The EMF ..if his shoulder injury is up to it from his "off" in N.Yorks yesterday ..
The Sidwood area of Kielder Forest is where I started my ride on a trail which has been closed since storm Arwen.The Bastle Trail ..and still is closed although someone local is still walking it and while designated as a walking trail I've been riding it for nigh on 30 years ( so drop my pants and spank me pink ) .. God knows why it should remain closed as it wouldn't take too much work ( Forestry England ) to get it back to its former self ..having said that the grass is getting high in places.
The rest of the ride had me on forest tracks in the main in good condition ..but some overgrown with seedling trees making them more like singletrack, ..byeways ( open to all vehicles ..and in a right mess) and singletrack tarmac roads in a rough state of disrepair..and all the better for it on an ebike ..
Fantastic weather for a change
War of The World's..the aliens have landed..
An overgrown forest doubletrack ..with Kielder Water showing at the very top of the pic..
Slaty Ford as slippery as a slippy thing ..minced my way over!
This is also where the mapping app switched off but it doesn't take much working out as to how I got back to the start..
Enjoyed that

My bike from a ride today...
Had a good dry one today 32 miles . Local to me
at Moray Monster Trails . Trying to think when this first opened between 15 and twenty years I'm thinking. Still in good nick so Forestry must be doing something though I've never seen anyone working on them . Nothing scary but if you go fast enough it can catch you out , broken back now paralised , thumb pinned , two broken wrists on Xmas eve just a few of the injuries that I know .Repair or replace shimano boots ?

You probably could get them repaired Lancashire Sports Repair in Burnley springs to mind ..depends on cost and wether it's worth doing versus a new pair ..Had a good dry one today 32 miles . Local to me

Just clean them…….at least another few years left in them
I thought you were on about the trails Neil , I forgot about the boots haha. Got another pair the same only a few years old so will just probably dump the old ones had them a long time.. I could go in to Timpsons though the soles are ok just needs a bit glue eh.
That's the answer I was looking for .Just clean them…….at least another few years left in them
You cut the second one the same, it will make very good airy shoes for the summer..
