koebot Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Does anyone here ride? I've been wanting to get back into riding but the GTO is my only vehicle right now. I'm terrified of putting a rack on it and I don't think I will. I could borrow a family/friends car but schedules may not always allow. I'm looking for opinions/suggestions or any solutions that others may use in my situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DenaliDan Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 How about putting a hitch on your car? Hitch-type bike racks keep the bikes away from your car and you might be able to find a hitch that is mostly hidden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koebot Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 Ride your bike there and back! That'll be 5 cents. Lol. Good idea but way too far. How about putting a hitch on your car? Hitch-type bike racks keep the bikes away from your car and you might be able to find a hitch that is mostly hidden. Pretty much what I've decided to do. Will cost more but I did find a hitch for my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikegeaney Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I too would recommend a hitch mounter trailer. I bought one for my wifes old Subaru, got a 4 bike Yakima rig, and was good to go. I got the hitch from etrailer and they were great to deal with. Trailer hitch, hitches and bike rack (800)298-8924 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vink70 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Friend of mine bought a hitch mount bike rack. it has a tilt feature that when you need to get into your trunk, he has a hatch, you can tilt it away from the car and still have access. Very cool mount for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
