My wife and I plan on spending a week in California for vacation. I think it will be too much of a hassle sending our bikes out or bringing them with us since we will probably only do 25 miles per day.

My question is if we rent them, what type of rental car do most people get? A small one (that can't fit the bikes inside) and rent a bike rack too? Or a larger vehicle that can hold both bikes inside. The 2 main advantages of them being inside is less chance of theft and protection from the weather.

Just wondering what others do since this is our first outing like this.
