Hitch Bike rack - Event Date: 07 Oct 2012 - 21 Oct 2012

Hi, welcome to the Pod world. My husband and I love to bike wherever we go. We have always had the bikes on the back of our RVs or cars. Without a bumper, the RPod is a challenge. The back hitch, supposedly has a 150 pound limit. At this time, when we camp, we put our two bikes into the Rpod for travel,,,but if we want to stop for lunch it is a hassle. We have considered putting our spare tire on top of the TV and our bikes on the back of the RPod,,,or buying an expensive bike rack for the top of the car, but quite often we kayak as well as bike on our camping adventures, so I think we are stuck with putting the bikes in the Rapod for travel. The previous owner of our RPod modified the dinette by cutting square holes in the bench nearest the door and forming a sort of tube inside the bench, like a tunnel for each table leg ( the horizontal part) then we slide the table right up to that bench and it gives us room to slide a bike into that part of the RPod. The other bike is snuggled toward the back,,that one goes in first. We then bungle them to keep them secure and add some padding to prevent scratches. Good luck with your solution and let me know what you have decided!
