[RBW] Re: Car Bike Rack

Just saw a new Yakima hitch mount rack called the Dr. Tray. It holds 2 bikes. They make a 1 bike add-on for a total of 3 bikes. However, like most tray mount racks it is not fender friendly. I don't know if Edwin's Yakima Two Timer which is a tray rack with clamps for the top tube (fender frie

Well, someone missed something, since my only query was, where did this topic come from, and, I'm interested in it. No spirits involved, afaict. On Mon, Apr 10, 2017 at 11:05 AM, Garth wrote: > PM, it appears what you missed was the spirit in which I posted, and what > I often miss is the spirit

Re: [RBW] Re: Car Bike Rack

PM, it appears what you missed was the spirit in which I posted, and what I often miss is the spirit in which you give yours. This written word thing without face to face communication can be great sometimes, other times utterly lacking in decency. In person we would either promptly part or be g

Yes, you did miss it PM. Are we playing "this discussion belongs to me-the-originator so only those that speak to what I want to hear, or else ..." ? Is this what this place is ? If it is, you can have it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Own

Friends, let's veer away from anything negative about men. I happen to be a big fan of men. If I told you about The Greatest Man (not counting Jesus), my late father-in-law, you would weep at the stories of his kindness. And then there's the two young men I happen to be raising, oh, their lucky

Where did this "ask directions" thread pop out from? I'd like to join. Really, I missed it; it's not from Leah. Directions: what's the big deal? I always ask and have always asked directions; long ago my girlfriend told me, "The other guys I've gone out with are afraid to ask." My daughter gets em

[RBW] Re: Car Bike Rack

Well, I am a man, if I don't know where I am going I won't hesitate to ask for directions. I once visited a small city in Cailfornia I had never been and was looking for a certain place, I thiuht I jknew where it would be but lo, not even close was I. So instead of wandering like a fool, hey, th

Leahfoy, Whether they are more successful or not due to their stature is not really the point. Prior to arrival you had no satisfactory bike rack for your sure to be memorable adventure on the Odyssey; now functional rack check, access to boys bikes check, safely protected tbbitew check, attitu

My Saris Freedom 4 Bike Rack arrived and I had some spare time today. There I was: socket wrenches, Allen keys, nuts, bolts, and steel bars. It was kind of a mess but my outfit was cute, so there's that. I got a new (to me) Honda Odyssey, and had the towing package installed for such a time as t

[RBW] Re: Car Bike Rack

I may try that Les. It makes sense to try an adapter with my existing rack first. It's an older 2" Yakima upright. Thanks. -Bill On Tuesday, March 28, 2017 at 2:19:42 PM UTC-4, Les Lammers wrote: > > I'd try a quality hitch adapter first. The extra few inches of overhang > will not be an issue.

I'd try a quality hitch adapter first. The extra few inches of overhang will not be an issue. On Tuesday, March 28, 2017 at 10:20:52 AM UTC-4, William R. wrote: > Thanks for sharing Leah. This Saris looks like it would be a good rack for > my situation. I am currently experiencing a car rack co

[RBW] Re: Car Bike Rack

Thanks for sharing Leah. This Saris looks like it would be a good rack for my situation. I am currently experiencing a car rack conundrum though. We are a one car family (my wife and I, plus two kids) and we just recently bought a new-to-us Outback wagon. It came with a nice 1.25" trailer hitch
