I saw a bus in North Vancouver (on the day of the VW show so it might have been an out-of-towner) that had a Thule rack with the real load bar mounted ant the VERY back of the pop-top. There we bike fork-mounts (I think they were Thule but didn't get a close look) mounted on this load bar such that the bikes hung down the back of the bus. Don't think you could get to the engine w/out removing the bikes. Anyone else ever try this? I can't remeber if the load bar was mounted to the pop-top or on the rain gutters (via the super high feet). -- +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Glen Buhlmann | "Saw it on the tube.
