    Just did the test fit on the road bike under the new camper shell. Perfect fit!

    For reference, this is a '16 with a short box and a cab hi Snugtop Rebel. Bike is a Gunnar Sport, size 56 and I'm 6'1". Fits with about 1.5" from the top of the shell to the saddle with no front wheel. I'll be putting some QR mounts on a 2x6 cut to fit right at the tailgate. Should be able to get 2 bikes side by side fairly easily without dropping seats. I'm loving the idea of having bikes secured out of the weather, inside the bed.

    Hey Guys,
    I recently picked up bike riding as a substitute for running (becoming hard on my 57 yo frame). Normally I ride the bike after work so I end up laying the bike down in the bed. I'm not a big fan of that method so I bought a fork block (similar to the Hollywood Rack T970) but cannot figure out a secure way of mounting it too the rail. Any ideas for mounting? I apologize if this has been asked before.

    No helment, stupid shoes, no gloves......................and then there's the predicament. It's not the fall, it's the grinding your skin from the bone on the cement that hurts. Nice form on the bird pose tho, extra points for that.
