Okay, here's ANOTHER question from clueless me. How do you all transport your carbon fiber bikes? Currently, I transport my steel mountain bike on a trunk-mount rack, secured with bungee cords. The rack has really scratched up the trunk of my car as well as my bike. I am now looking at carbon fiber bikes. While I know I cannot expect a new bike to stay blemish free forever, I'd like not to overly contribute to any unnecessary scratches and scrapes. I don't think a roof rack would be too practical as I am kind of short - 5'2". I think I'd need a step ladder to get a bike on top of the car, and that's probably not too safe. Perhaps there are newer trunk-mount racks that are made with non-scratch materials (rather than metal, like mine)? I have a four-door Honda Accord and would be able to transport the bike in the back seat as long as nothing and/or no-one else is back there. Ideally I'd like something that could transport DH's and my bike at the same time. When we do that with my current rack, the bikes bump together, contributing to more bumps and bruises.

Thanks for putting up with all my newbie questions!
