]I have just acquired a Halfords 2 bike carrier, the type that fits between the tow ball and tow bar, 2 legs drop in, and the bikes are then suspended. Does anyone have experience of this type of carrier and can the caravan be towed safely when bike carrier is in place?

Any advice recommendations are welcome

Hi Bryn, We have just purchased this "Maypole" bike carrier for the sum of £37 plus postage from Ebay. It is very solid and will support three bikes totalling 140kg

That looks just like ours, have you towed with it on? if so does it impair anything

Blimey is that the bike you are going to carry? I used to ride one of those to and from the wholesaler for my parent's general shop back in the 50s

Hi

No, it is 2 lightweights bikes, but it's good to remember

Hi, We too have this bike rack that we use on our car when not towing... our caravan came with a bike rack fitted. We have used it many times and cannot see it being a problem when towing. The only problem we have had is remembering which way to secure the bikes... we always seem to get the peddles in the way of the spokes etc!! Any rubbing of the bikes against each other, just use a t.towel wrapped around the peddle/bar etc to stop scratching. Foam pipe insulation works well.

Ok, just got to get some lycra and away we go, do they do lycra in "fat"??

I was rather hoping for something a bit brighter!! are they comfortable Randa????

I believe it's also illegal in Portugal to tow a car behind your campervan.
