I'm going to have to show Jonathan your pics and see if he thinks it will work for ours....<br /><br />Nellie<br />http://midlifecruiser.blogspot.com/ThE MidLiFe CrUiSeRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958004873717796137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886120447635133317.post-59218893809351921982010-06-17T20:07:03.121-04:002010-06-17T20:07:03.121-04:00We carry bikes and put them on the ladder.

Sometimes he takes the tires off and puts the bikes inside our Honda CRV. That takes up a lot of space, but then we have the bikes with us if we want them. We also carry a bike rack for the car so that we can transport them that way, but we don't travel with them on the car. We haven't found a solution to keep the bikes dry, though, except for putting them inside the car.<br /><br />Good job on the running! Keep up the good work.Carol Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428623116947826625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886120447635133317.post-22780389981145916512010-06-17T18:06:30.733-04:002010-06-17T18:06:30.733-04:00We had that same hitch on the back of our rig for ...We had that same hitch on the back of our rig for a couple trips & it worked fine. Problem was that we didn't use the bikes enough whenever we got to where we were going & by the third year we just gave up on taking the bikes. Never had any trouble with the bikes scraping the back of the rig but the bikes sure rubbed against each other a lot. I always made sure to have 3 separate locking devices all wrapped around the bikes & that saved them from being stolen one night in Roswell NM while we slept inside.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886120447635133317.post-50292579692073513382010-06-17T16:04:29.007-04:002010-06-17T16:04:29.007-04:00Hey Randy, a word of caution on the bike rack.

I to use to be a runner and wish I could still be out there but I have to settle for the walking part.

I admire your determination in getting back into running again. I often think about it but that's as far as I ever get. I do like the walking part though! Good job on getting all those projects done too.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523089898331291694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886120447635133317.post-33289745064354668162010-06-17T09:39:35.318-04:002010-06-17T09:39:35.318-04:00I really like the bike hitch...please let us know ...I really like the bike hitch...please let us know how that works. We haven't bought bikes yet so we haven't bought a bike hitch. This could save us from buying wrong.<br />My brother (Larry) is an avid runner. He has ran in many marathons here and overseas. He's in his 60s so he says dropping to a different age bracket has helped his run, LOL. <br />Don't you hate it when the "mouse team" is winning! Hang in there, I still put my money on the traps. You'll get him!<br /><br />Mike & Gerri (happytrails)<br />http://freedom2roll.blogspot.comHappytrailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604892750805362197noreply@blogger.com
