Default Amusing Yakima FAQ note

In the Frequently Asked Questions for the Raptor bike mount, Yakima
has this entry:

Q: I NEED TO CARRY SEVERAL BIKES. CAN I PLACE BIKES ON THE CAR
BACKWARDS TO GET MORE SPACE?

A: Yes, just remember to turn the bike around before riding it.

(Captialization theirs; somehow, it seems all the more appropriate
that way.)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yeah, but doesn't that depend on where you are going?

Back in the '80s, one of the cycling mags ran a photo of a guy who was
touring backwards...sitting on the bars, riding facing away from where
he was going, using mirrors. Maybe Yakima saw it.
