Does anyone in here just throw their bike in the trunk of their car?
I currently ride a Trek 1000 and for the past year have been taking the front wheel off my bike and throwing it into the trunk of my Honda Civic whenever I need to drive to my weekly group ride. I had toyed with the idea of getting a rack to put on the car, but liked the advantage I currently have of locking the bike in the car.
I'm currently looking into upgrading to a bike in the $2000+ range, this is causing me to rethink my bike transportation method.
I have a concern that putting the bike in the trunk is causing extra wear and tear on the bike.
Any comments?
