After picking my mtn bike up at the shop after some repairs, my dad pulled into a parking garage at the mall. My bike was on the rack on top of the car. There was an awful sound and my bike was pulled from the jaws of the Thule bike rack.
My bike was OK, except for a patch of black rubber on the frame (it rubbed off pretty easily).
In a way, I was disappointed... The bike was getting pretty old and beat-up and I would have loved for my dad to buy me a new one out of guilt!
