Hey Tony,
We are in the same position. We went to the Sportsauthority web site and looked at bike racks.There is one that mounts to the back bumper
of a popup.I think we are going to try that one.

Good luck,
Mountaindew

Looks like I'm going to have to do some roof repair to my 73 starcraft, so while I'm in there anyway, I might try to re-inforce the top to carry a bike, or perhaps a canoe....  I'd especially be interested in any home-made plans or ideas anyone has for a top mount bike rack, as I recently bought a recumbent tricycle - and of course, it's too wide and big to fit on a typical bike rack.  Even if I could make it fit, there would probably not be room for anyone else's bike, too - so I need room for 1 -3 bikes and the trike.

Ideas? links?

Wow - that's cool!  that would definately adapt well to any bike, including any form of recumbent!  The page is definately getting added to my list for future projects - Thanks!
