No, I am sorry to inform you there is nothing the same bout Georgia and alabama. Georgia has the rednecks, alabama has the hics.

Yeah. There are stops on the floor and I also made a center "target" using one of those orange/reflective fiberglass(?) rods you stick on the ground before it snows, so you know where to plow. But then, the bike is quite a ways in front of the car, so, it's not too terribly worrisome. When the weather is warm, I move the car forward, and park the bike behind it (because we rarely use that car).

Do you strap your bike onto the dolly? I haven't done so yet, as I am still riding almost every day. I don't see where strapping the bike on (like the instructions say to do), would make it any more stable - mine is solid as a rock as it is.
I like that I can spin the bike around in the garage, and get it facing out, so I don't have to back out and turn around in the driveway (which is pretty steep).

Not the traditional tennis ball on a rope that bounces off the windshield strung from the rafter ties? That's on my to-do list this weekend with my wife's car, now that I've got the ties braced. Gotta go by HOBO and check out some flouro light fixtures before running the EMT. That means TFT has to do without me again this year.
I used to have blocks for my Jeep, but, I kept kicking them and having to move them when I rolled my bike out. I finally realized, after living here for 10 years, that my door opens right at the edge of one of the windows when I am pulled in far enough, so, now, I just use that as my guide. (and there's a lot of room to fudge it).

I wish you had posted this a year ago. I purchased a dolly for my boyfriend after he had broken his knee cap. He really had a hard time backing his bike out of the shed, he has a classic. Unfortunately I paid hundreds of dollars more for this one. We thought it was a great thing until I saw the price you paid.

We just drilled a hole through the dolly and the floor of the shed and spin. Works great, saves his knee!
You got the deal I wish I did!
