Saris bike racks

soulsaverwmb · June 2007

I have a problem. I have to travel up to Northampton from Kent every weekend and I am very lucky as work let me use my van for this and paid for the fuel but I am not allow to use van for private use so it gets it parked up and doesn't get used again until Monday morning and I have to use my girlfriends beetle to get around instead. She however won't let me use it to transport my bike around, that is however until this weekend. Because I brought her a bike and we need to get the bikes to where we want to ride I was allow to strip the bikes down and stick in the back of her car which is a major drama to get them in the back so after much convincing she is almost close to letting me buy a rack to stick on the back of her car which means freedom for me and wider choice of rides for me and the reign in the Midlands[:D] The Saris bones suits her beetle well given its shape but she doesn't like the colour! In the states you can get them in various colours, I am after red to match her car but can't find any other colour in the UK other than grey. Does anyone know of any where in the uk you get a different colour other red?

Thx
Dan

F-**g tempted!!!!

Posting topic on bike rack has just caused a major row. She thought is was just to transport bikes to pitsford boring water for her benefit, where I as I want to use it maybe once a month to get to cannock, therford maybe even Wrye [:d], anywhere but flat boring Northampton but she don't want me putting lots of mileage on her car!!!! Ok then you drive to kent every other weekend then!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry Dan has the right arse now,I appoglise, I shouldn't bring my personal woes onto the forum [:(]

Well she is coming back around to my way of thinking after telling her I won't be up every weekend from now on, she will have to drive to me more often [;)] So back on topic, red Saris bike racks, anyone know where to get one or who the UK importer is for Saris?

Thx for the heads up

I did look at wiggle but was looking at the bones 2 not 3, didn't realized the bones3 was the one that came in different colours. Looks like bones 3 in red it is then [:)]
