Best way to carry or hold your bike

Pm Mr slain.......Oh.

ooof!!

hehe

Fix it, then push it.

Think I'm going to stick a piece of small piece of foam under the top tube so I can carry it like that classy bird.

Warning! Serious answer alert!

Bikes aren't really designed for carrying, so there isn't a technique that is "best", stick it on your shoulder and deal with it.
(queue meme thread derail)

?

^ lol!

Best way...

Lock it up. Bring new wheel for it.
HTFU and carry it home or carry it to bike shop for repair.
Or, carry it to nearest train station.

I can't believe I'm actually providing serious answers to this..

Or take a black cab.

if you are in minneapolis you can just put your bike on the front of the buses
no need to carry

they have those in various other places in the US too.

Minicab ftw. Cheaper and bikes will fit in the back.

If Carsh can do it..

make sure it's an estate or people carrier though if your bike has a long wheel base

When I carry my bike up stairs (to the office at work) I usually carry it with my hand under the saddle, then hitch it up to my shoulder (but my hands still holding underside of saddle), that way you get good clearance.

Looks like this wheelbase isn't long any more ^^ :)

What is wrong with people? Pick it up and carry it.

yes yes but how ?

arms fully extended out in front of you carry bike by top tube
or
one mitt griping the BB and carry it above your head ?

pick it up and carry it ffs * tuts * useless info

with your hands, arms and shoulder.

Anyway, it's not 'carrying'.. it's 'portaging' - you clearly didn't get the hiptionary update this year

Using velcro and webbing, fashion yourself a handy carrying shoulder strap. Velcro at one end to go round the seatpost and the other round the stem. Add a padded bit in the middle for comfort.
Fold up and keep in you bag so you can be ready for any evenuality.

Ed you appear to have a carrot embedded in your head?
