More bicycle storage ideas
Needing a place to securely transport our bicycles during our 1st “big” trip, i decided the dinette area was the best place for this modification. This is for 2 adult size bicycles.
I removed the table, legs, and leg receptacles in the floor, and put the cushions aside.
Cut some scrap pieces of wood, and inserted an eyebolt using fender washers and nylock nuts.
Slipped both of the wood pieces into the leg receptacles, and for good measure secured both with 2 wood screws.
Flipped both bikes upside down and ratchet strapped them to the eyebolts.
As for the cushions I placed them business side toward the dinette window, just in case the ratchet straps failed.
We did lose the use of our dinette but we had the jackknife sofa available to use.
We travelled from NC to NE and the bicycles never moved from their “dinette bicycle rack” during the trip.
Hope you all like the idea, any ? PM me.
