I acknowledge the Bindal and Wulgurukaba traditional custodians of this Australian land that I work, live and play on, and pay my respect to their cultures, their ancestors and to the elders, past, present and all future generations.

I've always thought that a sling winched down from the ceiling would be a safer and easier option. I don't like the look of that bike on a platform, too easy to bump it and all hell would ensue.

I acknowledge hardworking Australians no matter who they are or where they come from. All those who have contributed to this wonderful country deserve an equal share of gratitude for their contributions. To single any group of individuals out for special homage only denigrates the rest of us.

Not sure I would want to trust a sling attached to the handle bars of a 300Kg bike.

A modified version of the ramp could be made from steel.

Nope, the straps are bound to prevent access to the bit you need to work on. "Murphy's Law"
