If you're like me, you would want to conserve all the interior space
possible when on a trip or camp out.  I would suggest just hanging the bike
on a carrier attached to the rear hatch.  I did this with a full size 26
inch mountain bike on my trip to New Mexico, and it worked like a charm.
...And I just used a plain vanilla bike carrier from Wal-Mart that I picked
up for around $30.
