how do you load your bike on the car?

[LilBolt]

We carry our bikes that way (except forks to the back) in the back of my Explorer and the back of bf's Saturn Vue (although, he has to drop his saddle a touch for the Vue). When carrying other gear, we slip wheel bags over the rear wheels to cover the cassettes and keep things a bit tidier. Front wheels go into wheel bags for their own protection. We've actually used this method with 3 bikes + gear, with bike in the middle fork toward the front.

thank you girls.

yesterday i took some measurements and looks like with the bikes angled at about 45 degrees, like someone suggested earlier, they can actually fit even in a medium size car, which will work best for me here in europe.

here's the link where you can buy a fork mount, and build very easily your own internal-car-bike-carrier.
