I use mine on a full sized pickup with a class IV hitch. It should work on a RV fine.

The Easy Fold is rated at 130 pounds, I looked it up.

On the Thule Easy Fold we have there is an arm with a clamp that you tighten down until it ratchets. It has a lock on it so the knob just spins without loosening. I’m not sure it would stop a determined thief but it would help.

I also have a Thule Easy Fold. The only thing bad I can say about it is they aren’t cheap. I originally got the longer ramp for mine but have stopped using it. If I take the battery out of our bike they weigh about 40 pounds and I just lift them up. With the ramp and walk mode it was fairly...

We road the High Trestle Bridge Trail in Iowa yesterday. We started at Woodward and this pic is the old depot. The next couple of pictures are the bridge and views from it. The last couple of pictures of the restaurant we ate at called the Flat Tire. Also a picture of the bike rack...

We hauled our bikes up to Minburn Iowa and road a trail called the Raccoon Trail. It’s very nice and smooth concrete the piece we rode on, it’s a little over 10 years old. Straight as an arrow that follows an old rail line. A picture of the old depot in Minburn, our truck and my in laws Jeep...

Tomorrow we head off for the High Trestle Trail in Iowa. The bikes are loaded on the back of my truck and ready to go. We are meeting my sister in law and her husband there.

Very hot and humid here, heat index hit 115 today. I did a short 11 mile ride before it got too hot. A picture of a windmill that still works but it’s just for show.

We rode 12 miles today to a nearby small town with an antique store. It’s only open on Saturdays.

Stefan had an epic ride, RabH your rides are no longer epic, they are legendary!

I ride 19 miles today, near where I live. Yesterday wasn’t great weather, not a lot of wind but very humid. Today windy but much nicer. A picture of an abandoned house. I don’t know why I always want to know what the story is. This house was resided and looked to be in good shape when it...

I googled bicycle front end shimmy and what I found is a front suspension can cause it and large heavy tires can also. I’m not familiar with your bike, does it have a larger heavier tire and front suspension?

Are your sure your inseam is short for your height? I’m a little over 6 feet tall and wear a 32“ inseam. I know someone who is a little taller than me who has a 30” inseam. Surely you can find a bike that fits you. I think I would worry about the fit more than anything else. I’d think at...

I did 25 miles today, around where I live. The first picture shows and old silo, the top gone. It’s made of of clay tile, roughly the size of a cinder block but clay and fired in a kiln. For those that don’t know silage is usually corn picked when it’s green, then stored and allowed to...

A couple of epic rides. Prairie Dog riding the cliffs of Canada, RabH riding what looks to be an acoustic bike, very impressive. Stefan forging large rivers in Poland. All of these great looking rides! I actually have some pictures from today’s ride that aren’t corn, bean fields, or broken...

I didn’t see this thread until today and now it all makes sense. RabH doesn’t really ride a 100 miles in a day he just drives around the country side, takes his bike out of his vehicle, takes a picture, than repeats. I joke of course because that would take as much work as just doing the ride...

Thank you. 5000 miles for you takes what, about 2 months? :D

I did 25 miles this morning. About one fourth of the ride was on a road I hadn’t been on before. It was very hot but the wind was thankfully light and when it did kick up it was in my favor. I also hit 5000 miles on it today. A picture of a benchmark I rode by, who else but a surveyor would...

With my college degree I had a lot of physics and a class in dynamics. One thing you learn is something that is linear versus something that isn’t. If you pick up 100 pounds and carry it 20 feet and then carry it 40 feet it takes roughly twice the energy to go an extra 20 feet. Wind...

I rode 17 miles today, very hot and humid these days. A couple of pictures of the crops. The old saying used to be knee high by the 4th of July for corn this is already waist high.
