Would you rather him ratchet strap the bike to the roof? I have a Silverado to haul the toys but if I didn't have the truck I wouldn't think twice about putting a hitch on my Camaro. I wouldn't pull anything heavier than a jet ski though. Our rear diff only hold a quart of oil.

I took mine camping with a trunkload of firewood - if you can do something with the car other than wax it, do it! I'd put a ski rack on it (a la Better off Dead ) in a heartbeat, and a hitch makes sense to haul your bicycles around.

HA! I love it! That is a lifestyle thing fellas, nothing wrong with it. People riding those bikes are in much better shape than some of us are.
I say do it! |

apparently some of these guys have never been to a track before. It's not uncommon to see even corvettes with hitches on them, pulling a trailer with their tools and spare tires/drag slicks on it.
Matter of fact saw a Viper towing his stuff the other week. If it's good enough for an 80k+ car it's damn sure good enough for ours.

Some of us can't afford multiple vehicles and do the best with what we got. I like enjoying different outdoor recreation and getting maximum value from my car.

It's yer car, do what you want. Glad you found a way to combine your interests.
Be careful if you ride your bike on the street.

Can you show a pic of the reciever hitch from the back. I have seen a few guys tow a small trailer with four racing wheels and tires to the track which looked very practical to me.
Which Thule hitch mounted bike rack do you recommend? (for my suburban) |

Not something I would ever consider doing, but if it works for you then go with it.
