stick them on the roof and damn the fuel consumption?
Well that fucks the contest.
If your lodging has an "Accueil Velo/Acccueil Cyclste" (cycle friendly) designation then they should have secured storage somewhere.
Any cheap hotel like an IBIS should allow you to put the bikes in your room if you are polite and ask nicely.

Am I (in the words of BRM) just being a fanny about sticking the bikes in the car rather than on the car for the trip to the Alps, and I should just stick them on the roof and damn the fuel consumption?
Just thinking that I'll have way more room for clothes etc if the bikes are on the roof, but of course I'll need to find somewhere to store them for the overnight stay in each direction.
