Where did you find the bike rake that goes over the propane tank?

I don't know if that would work for my camper as I have a tilt out sleeper as its a hybrid. Maybe if the rack can be easily detached or folded down.

This is what I bought for the bike rack, it is removable fairly quickly

then you can use any 2" bike rack you can find, since I do not take mine off I installed bolts through it instead of the quick release bolts
Looks pretty straight forward. $299 is pretty steep though, as it hasn't even carried a bike yet!

When manufacturers say a camper can sleep 6, I laugh. With your plan, I believe it.
we looked for a year, stumbled upon this one at the last RV show in the area in 2012, and instantly new thats what we wanted was double bunks in back for kids.

It got lots of space for everyone, including the 90lb german shepard

I have a 2012 Autumn Ridge 278BH. Bought it brand new from dealer. Love it. I have added a bike rack over the propane., second battery (and a second one in truck as well). oh and memory foam topper for mattress, and rear laundry hanger
