Hi, Anyone had any experience mounting a large paddle board bag (or similar) onto the rear bike rack (the Thule tailgate one not tow bar), along with bikes? We’re off to France later this year and the paddle board takes up too much space inside. Would want to make sure it can’t be stolen though, may have to cover in a rain cover too (though I’m hoping for no rain!)

Cheers
 
Take them out the bag, and fold it so they sit in the space on top of the parcel shelf. Strap the paddles to the bike rack between the bikes on the base.

Or, inflate them up and carry them on roof bars on the roof. Also saves pumping them up when you get the beach.

(Need to watch the total weight on the bike rack.)

Oh, taking everything out the bag is a great idea can’t believe I didn’t think of that! also if we’re never carrying it long distance it’s not an issue
