Ican't see £75k in this

If I was travelling in a van like that with a bike in the back I would have to give the anchor points a fair old coat of looking at. Some on bikers with motorhomes are using little more than knicker elastic and baling twine to hold the bikes down when they put them inside the van.

A trailer would seem to be the way for a heavy bike? No C1 or payload issues.

My view is if you are towing a trailer with a motorhome (and that includes cars with an A frame) then just as well have a caravan.

But I may be right or wrong

Any bike in the back would need 12mm bolted down D rings front and rear, with 2t at least ratchet straps, and preferably a bolted down front wheel jobbie thingy.

The man for the job would be Uncle Tim @zzr1400tim As soon as the idea came up I thought certain elements of his bike rack / trailer could be adopted here. Could be another project for him. Combined with Kevs ramp it could work well.

Also with that van to lower and use the bed means you would have to remove the bike first. I don't think you would get away with simply removing the mirrors or rotating the bars.

Caravans usually require campsites, and we still wouldn't have our motorbikes with us. Towing a bike trailer doesn't require a campsite and we have our motorbikes. Some people want to take more than one motorbike if you both ride.

I've hardly ever found a trailer to be much of a problem and tow nearly all the time. But then some find making a bed a problem.

Men can’t make beds, everyone knows that. If she forces you to do so make a right pigs ear of it or she’ll ask again.

I make an excellent bed, horse piddle corners and everything, but it's all duvets now, so no need.

And that's why they are not a problem.

I bet you make a nice sandwich as well.

Nah, I do my best to avoid the kitchen, wimmins dept, I'll attempt something once or twice a week to give Liz a break, but I find anything more than washing up extremely stressful.
