last summer down at the coast my mate put his kitesurf bar (with safety release system - new and unused!) on the roof of his car. Wasn't until we got to another beach that he realised that the bar wasn't in his car.

So then we had to drive back to all the places we'd been to trying to find it. We'd given up and were heading back to the first beach when he spotted it hanging in a tree, luckily it'd fallen off of the roof right by someones house and they'd actually attached it to a tree!

He'd actually managed to get a few miles before gravity got the best of it. Luckily there was no damage to it.

Amazing what some people leave on the roof!
