Hey all,
Couple things I forgot on the first bike rack post:

1) I don't have a trailer hitch, and I won't be installing one so I
suppose trailer hitch bike racks are out of the question

2) I notice RMMW sells a rack that supposedly fits the Vanagon.  I
wonder if anybody has had any experience with it?  Here is their
description:

Ultra-Versatile Bike/Ski Rack:
"Get out to the great outdoors no matter what the season, with this
great combination Bike Rack and Ski Rack.
Constructed of enamel-painted tubular steel, with a protective vinyl
coating on the support arms and thick foam rubber cushions on the
contact areas.  One of the few accessory products we've seen that has
achieved the prestigious German TUV safety certification.  Attaches
quickly and easily to your Volkswagen, while securely carrying up to
three bikes or two sets of skis."

The photo in the catalog shows the rack mounted on the decklid of a
Beetle.  It supposedly fits all Beetles, all Buses, all Type 3s and all
Vanagons.  It lists for $74.95, which seems suspiciously low considering
the prices I've been getting from you folks here on the list.

Does anyone know about the quality of this unit?

Sean
