Due to injury (broken bones!) our van owner/driver is out of the picture for our trip to Wales on on the 24th! I have a Thule carrier for my Leon but its the two bike one- it would be great to get another bike on the back. Does anywhere rent these out?

Plan B is to buy roof rails as I can borrow some carriers for up top. Sadly the other car currently going is a Corsa (new style with integrated rack) so six people and six bikes is currently looking tight!

Thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

Wheels off and bungee frame to other bike with loads of padding.

Or hire a crew van.

Depending on how good a mate he is would your pal with the van lend it to you and then sort out 24/48 insurance cover and bung him some cash for wear and tear?
