How can I lock my bike to a car rack?
Over the last year, I’ve gotten really into biking around my neighborhood. I’m ready to move on to new locations. Problem is, I’m not sure how to secure my bike. My car has a rack on it, though not specifically made for bikes. How do I lock my bike to a car rack?

Biking
is an awesome hobby and a great way to stay in shape! There are a few ways you can lock your bike onto your car rack, but the easiest and least expensive way is to use a long cable with a rounded puck at the end. With the cable and puck, create a secure loop around and through the bike’s frame while attaching it to the car rack. Slip the end through the loop and pull to secure the bike.
Of course you can always pick up a bike rack for your car from a sports or department store, or order one online. Bike racks are usually the most secure way to lock your bike onto your car.
Since you’ll be driving to different locations with your bike, consider investing in a roadside assistance membership. A roadside assistance membership can ensure you’re always protected, regardless of the situation.
