Several A'vanners have written in requesting more information on the bike rack as featured in the A-Clinic section in April 2001. Sorry, but we forgot to include photos of the actual modifications made to the pole carrier and the strengthening of the spare wheel bracket. As mentioned in the story, we probably wouldn't go to us much trouble on our next A'van! Anyway the dimensions are available for those wanting to try our present "fix". Just send an email. At least you know it definitely works OK as we have used it for five months now with zero problems.

Note: Before doing any modifications it might be an idea to read Be Careful Out There by Neil Louer in the A-Clinic section (caravan frame regulations) - Bob
