Technotart "There is a lady here in town who has run her roof rack into her garage WITH the bikes on it...TWICE!!!I know I think I would NEVER do that, but apparently it does happen!"
ahem, done it once, I think the title of the thread was "stupid idiotic bonehead moron move of the year" or something like that. I know another rider who did that. It happens, it's awful, horrible sound and moment.
Several times on the freeway I've sped to catch up with drivers whos bikes were askew, tilting at dangerous 45 degrees off the rood, and driven beside them making pointing motions at the roof till they "got it" and pulled off.
But I still like the rack and at 5'1" have no problem loading a bike.
by the way my bike lived, the other rider I know her Independent Fabrication frame busted in 7 places.
