At last I have worked out how Potless Paul manages to store his roof, flat in the boot, which means bags can be stowed in the base of the boot making it a lot easier to fit the roof for those rare occasions it rains on a Eurotour.

The left panel goes in first with the curved edge (window side) to the right of the boot. This just about pushes past the boot seal.

The right panel goes on top of that, with the curved edge (window side) to the rear of the boot.

Needless to say it is a good idea to put the panels in their bags or to place a towel or blanket between them.

Thanks to PP for the inspiration to take a look at my boot after I saw him load his flat; I stupidly didn't make a note of the orientation of his roof panels in the boot and was itching to try it once I got home.

Canny lads these chaps from the North East!
