I had to buy this roof Yakima bike rack for my vehicle which was not able to accomodate any other sort of bike transport solution. I am very happy with the rack once I get the bike up there which I have to do with a step stool due to my small stature. It is a hefty bike. Is there any sort of ladder or step stool that any one recommends that can make this easier? I need one that is high enough and that can get close to the vehicle (Subaru 2005 Legacy wagon). Are there any other possibilities that I am missing? Even if I get a lighter bike, I still need the height to manuever the bike up to the roof.
