    Yakima and other companies make a fork mountain that you can screw into and mount onto a long 2-4 or some such piece of wood If the wood is the same width as the bed of your Ute, then it will not slide around too much especially with the bike mounted to it. You take your front wheel off and mount it on the fork mount and wala, you are ready to drive anywhere. If needed and you feel more comfortable since I don't know what a UTE is either; find something to bungy the bike to; i.e. use a bungy cord or two to hold it in place.

    No wonder the University of Utah doesn't attract many students from down under.

    At least the U mascot is the Runnin' Utes and not the broken down utes.
