Such a simple thing to overlook. doh!
I guess I'm going to have to buy a bike carrier that allows me to keep both wheels on the bike. Anyone have one they want to trade for one of mine?
At least my car has folding rear seats so I can stuff my bike in the trunk if I want to drive to a start point for any weekend tours I take this Spring. I wonder what else I'm overlooking.
What you need is a thing called a 'fork up' which extends the rack upwards. I have a couple. PM me.
