Comments on the clue
1.The rules ask for an 11-letter thematic word.
2.SIDECAR doesn't fit the brief (the second word/phrase also needs to be 11 letters in length)
3.Nice SIDECAR clue but the -DEC- word must be 11 letters long (among other issues)
4.starts promisingly then ends up as a collection of unrelated words making no sense
5.Needed to read the instructions a bit more carefully!
6.Huh?
