Thanks for all the replys so far folks, keep em comming!
I wish i knew how to weld. I could fabricate something that would hold one wheel on each side of the bike using side case mounts and a something to hold a wheelless frame mounted to a top case. I think jurying rigging something using a Boa forkmount and BB cradle style repair stand and mount that to a frame that can house a soft bag for bike gear and then mount that to the rear shelf behind the seat.
Sounds like a winter project waiting to happen for a design professional such as myself. I smell a patent!
