Your firkin kiddin me right?

Ride it and enjoy getting wet and dirty! Make a day of it and plot as much of your route as possible through some lanes. You defo wont get cold, it will be much more interesting than the m/ways in the shizzle and ya'll gel with the bike much quicker. The sooner you do it the better.

If its yours maybe take a look at these www.motocinch.co.uk im getting a set for my crosser and 2 sets for taking bikes to trackdays, theres a few vids on youtube of people using them too

If youre just hiring, what youre suggesting should be fine. Front wheel jammed up against the body of the van, the ratchet strap taut so bike cant rock left or right. I always think more ratchet straps wont do any harm
They look cool - is it really a 'special offer' or been £95 a while? I might get some just for 'one day'
