How to Carry a bicycle?

[Jerome]

I'm In Mexico learning Spanish and am waiting for my bicycle to arrive so at least I can keep fit.

I think there's a very strong possibility I won't want to sell it back to the dealer (as negotiated) or send it back home, but take it with me for exercise along the way.

Has anyone carried a bike on a bike before?

or do you have any suggestions how to do it?

Thanks!

I love the snow photo.



I forgot to mention I have Panniers and a top box so using his rack will not be possible.

One friend suggested cutting it up into smaller pieces.

Do you have any other ideas?

Talk to Ricardo Kuhn ("Ricky") of www.motomacando.com

He's a one-man band inventor/rider (moto and bike) He has some prototypes of his bike carrier shown on his web page. He used to have an Advneture, I'm not sure if he still has one in his "stable."

He's a Colombian living in the States so he can help you con tu espanol tambien.

FYI -- He's in the San Francisco, CA area.

buena suerte
