Borrow a roof rack bike carrier?

Howdy all.

Does anyone have a roof-rack bike holder they would be willing/able to lend me for a week from 3rd January? Going to Center Parcs with the family, and I only have 2x Thule 591 carriers myself, and need another one for the week to get all the bikes on the roof.

Obviously a pint (and a hug if wanted) available at the club dinner if you can help (hopefully the offer of a hug hasn't put anyone off!).

Cheers

I think I have got some Thule carriers in the garage but not sure which model. I can let you know midweek when I get home and can see what is there. My number is 07753 496966.

Paul, I have two different types, 559 and 549 in my lovely tidy garage. These are older models but I would not knoe if anything has changed in how they attach to the roof bars. I can't put my hand on the fixings to attach them to the roof bars but only had a quick look tonight. I am sure I have put them somewhere safe!

If I can't find them I also have a set of Saris Bones, a 3 bike carrier that fixes onto the back of a car.

I am away at the weekend so might not have much time to search for the 'safely' put away fixings.

The 'safe' location came to me in a vision and now I have two boxes of fixings to attach carriers to bars. The safest thing might be to check in advance that everything fits, rather than leave it until you are going. The Saris bones fit most cars but just mean yo can't get in to the boot while they are fitted.

Contact me at some point and we can sort out what you need.
