on the weekend I ordered some flash (pardon the pun) new lights for my bike from Ay Up! in Queensland...they arrived today...I went for the mountain bike kit
"Two high powered CREE LED lightsets, 12 hours minimum battery life (1 x 6hr, 2 x 3hr), dual charger, extra mounts for bush and commuter bikes plus other goodies."
super lightweight and very cute looking too...I went with the champagne colour for the handlebars (intermediate beam) and the gun metal grey (narrow beam) for my helmet...
then, later in the day, I got a text message from my brother to meet him after work as he had a box of stuff to give me...I didn't think anything of it but boy, did I get a surprise when I saw my car - he'd put Thule roof racks (aerodynamic bar) on with a bike carrier (Outride version - fork mounted and lockable)!!...what an excellent early Christmas present!
I adjusted it tonight and had a go at putting my bike on it...and, yes, I will remove all the extra bits before I really drive my bike around up there!

Great present! Don't forget to take your bike off before driving into the garage - or under a tree.
