04/29/07 - Re: Yellowstone or Bust

The carrier I'm looking at using, who hauls for Harley among others, has a double-decker trailer. Bikes are brought on with a lift-gate, moved into the trailer and turned side-ways.   I don't know if that allows for more bikes or prevents bikes rolling forward in case of a hard stop.
