    hahaha

    My old boss stopped by once with his then new Lambo 560/4 with a bike rack attached to the back...complete with the requite scratches in the bumper. Just the way he is....

    Hey man...your car. Looks like you are happy. Carry on :)

    BTW: Gotta be a better way to hang the front plate.

    if you had used Ferrari Bikes, you would have added $25K to the value.
    But at this point, break it down & sell it for parts.

    The good news is it's carbon fiber, so that's cool, the bad news is I looks like you still have the dreaded spoke protector on your rear wheel...gotta lose that. Very un-cool

    I have a water bottle and equipment bag on my bike. Never thought about attaching a Ferrari to it. Definitely classes it up a bit...

    Oh my oh my, as if not enough attention already..........
    I have always gone by the thought....
    "Pedaling is illegal in all states but Nevada" and what if your wife or girlfriend were to drive the car..imagine the reputation stir that would cause...
    No sir, pedaling is illegal...and if it must be pedal'd, try a walker instead, you won't need a carrier...you will become one.

    It depends how dented your challenge grille is now.

    Ouch... next time get the little tools for popping the gear cluster off. Makes it super easy, and then you can pop off the cluster off to change ratios, replace broken spokes on that side of the hub, etc.

    De-value ?!

    Hell, you just added value...... you have created a Ferrari that actually has a practical purpose. :p

    .....so long as you did not need to punch holes or scratch up the paint, more power to 'ya !

    Kudos to the OP for posting this and IMO it's a helluva lot better and less detracting to the car then most of the pimped-out, ghetto wheels I see put on Ferraris, paint "jobs", insipid audio-systems etc. If you jacked up the Challenge grill so be it - plenty on here for sale.

    Cheers and beautiful car!

    Kudos! Looks like your very own Ferrari ;)

    Owners like you should be more common.

    The OP didn't say whether the bike was there for fun or a utilitarian "back-up plan" for when the car throws a CEL and leaves him stranded! :) Car in neutral and a tow hitch on that bike, it may just work out!
