Worked a treat and I had no problems taking it down to Bordeaux.

I also put an old blanket between the bikes so that they didn't scratch each other.

Good luck

Are you still using the carpet bike carrier? Would it be bad if it rains?
I'm thinking of making one out of thin ply, foam with tie down straps. Then carpet to go between the bikes. Or maybe a maxxRaxx. My Mondeo is lowered & stiffened though, though it can tow a caravan OK. To me it seems neater to put the bikes on the FC if at all possible. MRT what did you end up using for the bike rack?
