Bike rack
Does anyone know of any suppliers of bike racks that would fit on the S2000? I have seen one that fits to the boot (trunk for the yanks) and rests on the rear bumper (fender), but it bends the bumper while it is fitted. I am looking for something that will hold two mountain bikes but that has a fixing that is stable enough for high speed driving while it is fitted....
Any ideas?

A search using the term "bike rack" turned up some helpful links including:

I am using the Da'lon hitch for towing a small trailer and it works just fine for that and would be perfect for a hitch-mounted bicycle rack. The hitch costs about $260 (including the draw bar and all necessary hardware) and took about 90 minutes to install. It does weigh about 17 lbs.

Thanks for the info guys, I will be looking into the tow hitch method. I found a supplier of racks that fit over the boot lid, but they also rest on the bumper, which to me does not feel strong enough to support the weight that would be put on it...

(Don't own it, but saw it in person this weekend . . . looks solid; "Nice Rack")
p.s. I s'pose people named Josh put hitches on their stooks doc?
p.p.s. Also; Wiring. PM me if you need any help here. I did a clean self-install.
