Bike rack for inside a minnie 2106

[Ranald]

Just wondering if anyone has seen or built a bike rack to carry two adult size bikes inside a Minnie 2106. I don't want to put them on the rear bumper, and don't want to add more tongue weight. Any suggestions?

I would not attempt to store two adult bikes inside my 2106 while traveling. I believe the potential to damage the inside of your RV would be high. I understand that you do not want to store them in the rear of your RV but I would rethink this. They store very easily in the rear as the racks are very user friendly. My daughter recently traveled from Florida to Virginia Beach using the bike rack system and had no issues at all.

You may also want to look into traveling with the bikes on the tow vehicle. i put mine on the roof rack of our Dodge durango. Perhaps in the the bed of the truck if you tow with a truck?

Thanks for the response folks. Points taken about bikes breaking free from an inside rack and about carrying them on the Tow vehicle. We would put them on a roof rack on the TV, but we are both getting up there in years and lifting the bikes up there is a chore, not to mention the rick to the pain on the car! She'd kill me if I scratch it! Inside the car ...a 2019 Highlander...just takes up way too much room, hence the in-camper idea. So, I made a rack that fits tightly in the open space, so won't move about, and the bikes are strapped tightly to that. We also have a couple of furniture tarps to go over the whole arrangement. Circumstances have prevented taking it on the road yet, but I am hopeful.

front bumper mount on the TV?

Hi, I haven't investigated front mounts on the tow vehicle, at least not yet. I tend to like my forward view to be completely unobstructed though so am disinclined to go that way. However, I will look into them. Thanks
