Does Bike Fit In An Audi A4 Saloon? - Dry Run

What I thought could be tricky turned out to be very easy.

Loads of room to spare.

I completely emptied the boot. Folded down the seats. Took off the front wheel and 'Hey Presto'. There is plenty of room for miscellaneous items. Must remember to pack the 'Joe Blow'  pump. The Joe Blow has turned out to be a really good buy and something I would recommend to any cyclist. To be kept at home or in the car.

Although the bike fits well there's actually not too much spare in terms of length as I didn't want to change the drivers seat position.

I'm riding with no GPS but will have to make sure my Polar HRM and FujiFilm X100T are fully charged.

I'm planning to ride creating a single GPX track (previously I've used a track per stage) and I'm thinking 6hrs 30mins in the saddle with stops on top. The Polar RC3 has 8-10 hrs battery life whilst in GPS mode so pretty confident it will last out.

I'll be up at 5am on Saturday ready for the off at 9:15am from The Royal Hop Pole Tewkesbury. The weather forecast looks promising. I don't mind anything other than strong wind. An average wind speed of over 25km/hr would most probably put me off.

I'm quite keen to change the pedals to MKS detachables before the Dartmoor Ghost Ride. I have a spare pair from the Brompton and the bearings are much better than the default units. I don't use cleats on this bike.
