Default Bike Rack - Not Top or Hitch

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows of a bike rack that will fit a 2005 Pilot other than a top rack or a hitch rack. It's for my wife and she can't lift her bike to the top and we don't have a hitch on the Pilot.

Thanks

Depending upon shipping costs, I have found Majestic's Handling Fee, to sometimes cost more than H-and-A. Of course, you can also see what Tim can do for you on his site as well.

Or you can buy something like this plus the cost of a piece of wood. I did something similar to the picture on the Performance web site. Works great.

Nice find. I think I like that better, as long as you use a board the same length even for one bike to prevent tipping. I would also suggest it be a 2x6 as well to prevent possible cracking. This is far more temporary/removable, allows for four bikes per the picture (maybe three in the Pilot) and a hellofa lot cheaper.

The pic:
