Probably never use them but the moment you leave them at home you get stuck in the mud. Finding a place to put them is difficult as they are BIG, so let's stick em on the roof.

    A couple of thoughts after watching your vid, 500,000 quit work or retired between 2020 and 2022. A lot of those lived in an era of rapid house price growth and in the last 10 Years low inflation. So they'll have a few quid and if they don't have it in the bank they can do some equity release on their house. I'm going to the show myself on Sunday not sure if what I was looking for exists yet, I want a swing out tow ball but want a rack with a hard shell cover for two bikes. If I can't find one, you might see me there in a few Years selling them. Lastly if you see me stopped by the side of the road on hot day I'll be the one with a small fan directed over a small bucket of cold water with £300 in my pocket :).
