Hi all,
How do you transport your pushbikes when caravanning? We have 2 bikes. What are our options and what’s best?
Thanks.

Thanks Surveyor. Looks great that. Where do you store the bikes when camped?

Haha is it safe to leave bikes in an awning? Are they padlocked to anything? Sorry if it’s a daft question, we are new to this.

We transport four bikes on the car roof and chain them together with a motorbike chain and numerous bike locks when stored.

Thanks all.

Surveyor - could you expand on the issue with Clumber Park? We are about 45 mins away and we had planned, once we’ve bought a ‘van, to make our first few trips there as it’s relatively easy for a beginner to tow to. No narrow lanes etc to contend with until we find our feet.

Surely 2 pushbikes can’t make that much of a difference to the weight of a large twin axle caravan?

Regardless of whether in front or rear or actually in the ‘van?
