    But if it rains the poor chick will get wet sitting out the back?

Bike up one and you walk up the other works great!! Walkin the plank makes all the difference LOL!!! .
    Often watched you use that ramp and thought how much easier it made it. top tip

    I just got myself an 86 ford econovan, been doing it up.
    Fits a bike with the bars down, havnt tried two bikes yet, but i think they will go in no sweat. They are mint to sleep in and do pretty sweet skids with out to much effort. Tiny as petrol tanks tho, only like 40L..

    heres a pick, before and current.. need some mags and tints now, got a huge ass big bore for it haha. Anyone got any cheaps 4 stud mags lying around??

    My choice is what I choose to do,
    And if I'm causing no harm, it shouldn't bother you.

    I have a serena that I use for my bike. I didnt want to keep moving the bars so use a strap to pull the front end down. Put bike in van and then strap bike down.
    The quiet scares me cause it screams the truth.

    had a ute l200 was nice to drive did good skids managed to run it out of oil and seize it left it for half an hour while I walked to the gassy to get some oil came back put the oil in still seized so rolled down hill dropping the clutch in gear till it un locked drove it around for about six months after that till I sold it just couldnt get comftable leaving my tools out in the open everytime I parked somewhere . Got a lwb transit van now its not like driving a car but its not to bad can fit soo much stuff inside and uses less gas than the v6 mitsi I had before costs about 30 bucks to drive up to kerikeri and could probly fit 5 or 6 bikes 3 easily only 3 seats though. pain in the arse to park but every one lets you in in traffic lol
