Tuesday night, I was riding home along Minnehaha Ave and saw an old hose reel. I'd been on the lookout for one, inspired by my father-in-law. He uses a hose reel to store his extension cords. So I stopped off and, hearing music from the backyard, walked around to the back and asked the owners if they were looking to get rid of this (it was by the garbage). After getting permission, I lashed it to my bike box using the one bungee cord I happened to have. I made it the remaining 6 miles or so without incident.
And yes, I do have two large vehicles with wood siding. Envy me.

I suggest that you apply wood siding to one of your bikes too.
Careful observers will note that I have a wooden box on the rear rack.
Alas, my wife won't let me put wood siding on her Jetta.
Oh, that's why there's an old hose reel in the garage. I wondered.
And like that, the gauntlet is thrown...
What a find!
