Not for bike lovers with weak stomachs! (Click on image to enlarge, Mom.)

Rolled 2 1/2X. Note absence of roof rack. Mais, non! Ce n'est pas un yard sale! Always wear your seatbelt.
Roof rack. Note interesting and unnatural angle of bike to rack/tray.
Corner on Green Springs Highway in Oregon. Note "Path of Destruction". It's likely that bike slowed my rotation.
If you click on this to zoom, you will notice the parts if the Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork still clamped in the Thule bike tray
Sad times. Bike in stand at Flywheel Bicycle Solutions in Talent, OR. The tape is the only thing holding the left half of the handlebars on.
Modified Chris King Headset: The thin strip at bottom has peeled off the edge of headset.
Unhappy fork.
Cranks and chainrings don't roll so good.
After inspection by the pros at United Bicycle Institute in Ashland and Flywheel in Talent, the Crown Jewel is true as the day it was lovingly crafted by the folks at
Independent Fabrication in Somerville, MA.
STEEL RULES!
