Thanks Suede, that was one funny video! I live in hilly area so when I need to transport I back the truck up to a hill making it easy to load or unload using a short 2x8.

It's almost incomprehensible that there a folks out there that are that simple minded, referring of course to the VID.

I totally forget they even tought us that at the rider class. They made us power walk the bikes using friction zone before we actually rode them.
Backing Down while on bike, in gear clutch in, bike off....that all makes sense! Thanks so much....
I'm thinking that you must have been hung over on that day or what?

Yep, slow and easy at first. With shed being 6 inches up from the ground with appx. 6' long ramp by 4' inseparable platform wide for your feet to duck walk the bike up looks good all day long.

But I have little experience driving through the snow, or on frozen metal material for advice that you'd give a hoot for reckoning as good advise! Yet, maybe throw some sand down for traction, if necessary? Nahh, bout as bad of advise of this for breakfast...

I bought an aluminum slatted ramp that I can slide plywood into. Then I'mgonna add grip tape strips to the
plywood also.

Be sure to catch a vid the first time you load it into the shed and post it up. That trailer loading clip was good.

Even though I have a bike dolly I found it faster and easy to put a 18" square of 1/4" thick plastic under the rear tire(push the bike over it) and then pull from the shock sideways until you are at the desired angle. I can even do 360 on the garage concrete floor without much effort.

The plastic piece was cut from a snow plow blade and is slightly curved. In fact I used it last week to move my Low Rider sideways to make room for me to install the oil cooler.

that's what I have to do, so most times I elect to push it up by hand. My rise is about 14" X 3.5' long.
