Yay, Robyn! So glad it is all resolved! And that there is insurance, too!
I know what you mean about bikes on the roof. DH and I remind ourselves for blocks "bikes on the roof" before we get to our carport. So far it works. It would sound insanely silly to anyone else, though.
I'm comforted knowing that if the bikes were damaged in such a way the rider on our house insurance that we have, would cover the bike damage with no deductible. Yup, we have it on all of our bikes, and that insurance costs more than the house insurance!!

I can't reach the roof rack, so I really miss the room we had in the van. The expensive brand new Toyota van was a lemon though, so I'm much happier about everything else with the Mazda 6 sportwagon.

Hugs & butterflies,
