Best way to transport bike on back of a ute?

My DH & I were both grad students at the U, but since we studied linguistics we're more 'Talkin' Utes' than 'Runnin'.'

I work at a school just down the street, and the parent's org. sells parking spaces for games, so it's great for my little school when they play well!

Hilldweller, here are some pics of our contraption. Sorry for the crap photography but it's quite sunny out

If you have a ute liner, look towards the back and there should be four notches which will hold the contraption in. If you want to hide some of the dirt in the back..get yourself some cheap black rubber from a car shop & slice two holes at the end for your contraption.

Yep a bit warm everywhere today! Well in NZ anyway The pics are great thanks. I have a bit of ply I'm sure will do the trick. So your bikes travel facing backwards, 'kneeling' with the front wheel off? Do you have to tie the back wheel?

We measured the back of the ute prior to purchasing it to ensure our bikes would fit .

Don't need to tie the back wheel & they've never fallen over.
