They are kinda kewl. Two bikes per rack. One side fits smaller wheels and turn it around and it fits bigger wheels.


ps. Not sure if Lowes carries them anymore

Autoduel, you can't just thank our posts and not give us details on the roadster.

It's a 70' 1600. I drove/autocrossed it for 5 years until I had the tranny lock in 4th during the mini-iron bottom run last summer. It sat in the garage for a year until I fixed the tranny this week. She's back on the road and may show up at a trailhead near you!
Here's an early picture:

Gorgeous little runner she is!
You've obviously taken very good care of her, and autocrossing is like a workout for her - it's good for her to run every one in a while!

Nice rack set-up too!

That's a sweet looking Roadster.
I hope I do get to see it at a trail head near me soon.

Default This is a Garage/Shop
This is my dads home away from the wife..

Barn was built by him and I...




28 Model A truck(1/2 built by him)


28 Rat Rod being built up from the ground(he's fabing most of the parts himself)


Yes the stove works...that is the only heat in the winter

On the side there is now a 26 being restored to original...

Not bike related but I know you'd like to see a killer shop....
