How to transport carbon fiber bike???

[Pedal Wench]

This is mine. I just added the ($14.95) wheel carrier fork for the front wheel. I'm loving it!

Wow! Thanks so much for all the great suggestions. I knew I could count on you!

This will keep me busy researching (you were right, Sarah!). This bike is gonna cost me more than my last two cars combined (oh, did I mention that my last two cars were given to me when the owners could no longer drive them ), so I want to take good care of it.

From my quick peeks on the 'net, I'm liking the look of the Saris Thelma (thanks for that link, DarcyinOregon!). Unfortunately, it is not carried by REI or Rack-n-Road - I think that's the one you meant, Sarah - there's one on Arden and another in Roseville, which is closer to me). I found the correct trailer hitch thanks to melissam's link though.

I need to do some work today, so guess what I'll be doing tonight?

I have a Honda Civic and I use a Saris roof rack for my carbon bike. I'm 5'4" and I open the door and stand on the doorway to lift it up. It's so light that I never have any problem. I also have a Saris Bones rack that I've used for my other bike. It always stays put real well but I prefer the security of a locking roof rack. Luckily, my garage door opener remote does not work, so I've never had to worry about driving through the door with the bike on. I know that as ditzy as I am sometimes, that would have been a real possibility.
