Bike mounting- Would like input.
I saw another member with his bikes setup like this and it seems like a great idea. What is everyones thoughts? 1) Is the table safe to travel in the down position? I may put a bit of velcro at...

When I saw this I did 2 things:
1) Loudly exclaimed "Eureka!"
2) Ran out and bought 2 fork holders for $15 CAD each
I never would have thought of doing this.
Until one of them comes loose and goes through the dinette window. And what happens if they're wet or muddy?
Not a good idea!
No offense, but that is quite an ignorant comment.
1) Fork mounts will clamp tight and not come loose. What do you think holds the wheels on while biking? I have fork mounts on the top of my truck/other vehicles and they never fell off, even while traveling 80 mph and the bikes were in direct wind.
2) I have the plywood secured when traveling. No way the bikes are moving.
3) When camping I am not riding in mud.
4) I have a rack on the back bumper for storage during the day/ dry off/wash if they DO get muddy
5) I have a rack on my truck topper if things get out of hand I really don't want them inside the camper for some reason.
6) Last time it rained and we had the bikes, I threw them into the back of my truck until it stopped raining. They stayed dry.
