Every christmas the missus and i drive home to Ireland, bringing the dog with us.
Until now we've always put bike and luggage on the roof, with the dog in the boot, but driving from SE london to Holyhead, limited to 70mph, with a loud whistle gets old very quickly, so I'm investigating ways to get around the need for a roof rack this year.
I'm planning to buy a spare bike to leave at my parents house for when we visit (we'll be over a lot next year), but I'm still a bit uneasy about luggage on the rear bench.
Is there a neater solution than just strapping it in as best as possible?
