Any pictures or drawings of modern cars with "structural longitudinal beams" in the roof/chassis that would function as the base for poles that could extend and retract from the roof and safely support a bicycle? Or is that feature only found in the props of a movie or screenplay to be released at some date after you become head of design at an automobile manufacturer?
