Cargo carrier, bike rack & Ham antenna
A couple years ago I purchased a 20"x48" cargo carrier for the back of the RV. It was a bit too small and I missed the bike rack. I purchased a ladder mount bike rack and it sucked! The ladder is on the far right side and the bikes hung out too far. However, it made a great rack for holding the folding chairs!
the cargo carrier was a bit too small for hauling a Weber kettle and a Weber smoker. So I wanted a bigger one. I also needed a bike rack and I have this Ham radio antenna that prefers to be mounted in the receiver. I made a way to solve all 3 and I am pretty happy with the results!
Introducing the Cargo-Bike-Antenna!

I purchased a 24"x60" cargo carrier, a 4 bike rack and welded them together. Then I mounted my "screwdriver" antenna to the upright of the bike rack. I had 3 bikes, a Weber kettle, a Weber smoker and room for an ice chest.
