Warrior (Freelancer book 2)
“They used bungee cords to secure the bundle to the VW roof. Then Rick pulled a four-foot length of heavy board out of the body of the bus, set it up against the back of the sliding door, and jockeyed the Kawasaki down the ramp.

The plan was that Kristee and Sage would head back in the bus, and Eve and Rick would do a slow cruise, enjoying the quiet roads.
