Comment on Roof Racks: The Good and the Bad by Bill Young

This was a great post, and certainly roof mounted racks are a good choice for those who wish to tow and carry bikes at the same time, or for carrying kayaks, canoes, etc. I can see the other side of the coin as well. If you are an older occasional rider with your family, the heavier family bikes can be a bit cumbersome to lift onto the roof of your vehicle, and unless you get it right the first time, you can cause damage to your vehicle if you miss the rack and hit your vehicle. Also, I can imagine after driving for awhile, forgetting your bikes are up there, and not paying close enough attention to lower hanging obstacles, like fast food drive throughs, or parking garages. OUCH! Roof mounted racks also create a lot of drag on your vehicle and reduce gas mileage, not to mention the bug factor. YUCK! Bottom line is that we need to consider our individual riding habits and towing needs before settling on a roof mounted, hitch mounted or trunk mounted bike rack. If you are interested in a great choice of hitch or trunk mounted bike racks, please check out my website, http://www.beyoungbikeracksplus.com. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at what you find there in many price ranges and styles to fit any vehicle, built by Yakima, Thule, Softride and Saris. Again, thanks for the great post!
