My Home Made Thule 561 in Use

In an earlier post (here) I described the home made version of a Thule 561 that I made by modifying a Halfords roof cycle carrier. Here are some pictures of both my sons's bikes on the roof of my Focus estate - the Boardman in on the Thule rack whilst the Giant Seek Hybrid in on my version.

Being extra cautious I have used some rope between both bikes. The wind was very strong and we had a 150+ mile journey up the M5.

The Giant on my version - its not going anywhere!

 I was very pleased with the performance of my modification
