the Wizard of Oz
my plan is to put my bike on the back of a U-Haul Pick-up and go south till I can open the windows, then park the truck and ride the bike for a few days. Might even take a peek at Daytona and all.
There are NO tall curbs near my house. My Q is if there's snow etc. the day I leave Chicago, what's the best technique for getting a bike up to a truck bed? If the driveway's stil icey I'll have to back the truck up to the garage door, get a buddy to help, and then what? I've seen a guy do it almost by himself w/ a good runnng start. We both pushed then he just caught the bumper and stepped right up with the bike. But he'd obviously done it a lot. And he was a biiiig dude. Would something "like" a cinder block as a first step help? Three guys? More liquor?
How have you done it?
