Default Looking to borrow a B5 sedan roof mount bike rack for Thanksgiving
I am transporting 2 bikes to northern NY and would love to not put these in my back seat. My preference is for a roof mount system, as trunk mounting is a bit of a hassle and puts the bikes in contact with each other. I'm in Waltham and will come to you to get the rack -- and am more than happy to bring a case or bottle of compensation :-)

My travel is from Thursday-Sunday...you can have it back Monday anytime. Greg (GdawgA4) and Ray (RayKahn) know me if anyone is worried that I'll drive off into the sunset with their rack.

Default I don't have the car-top mounts for a B5 but I do have Thule bars and a
bike holder if you need. If you can find the mounts from someone you can borrow these.

Default Might be an option -- the mounts are proving to be the tougher part to track down
Hey thanks for the offer! Could work out that I need them from you
