Last summer we got our Pino, and this summer we got a Rocky Mounts Tandem rack:

rockymounts.com/TandemMount_R4_bike_rack_p/0512.htm

Made here in Boulder CO, USA and we have hauled the Pino all over the state with this rack.

It's sliding rear-wheel tray allows the rack to be used for regular bikes as well.

Our Honda Pilot is tall, so it's a challenge to get the Pino on top, but the pivoting front fork holder makes a difference.

I don't know if you can get one of these in the UK.

I hope this helps.

Tosh - We recently purchased a new Audi allroad and I can get the Pino on the roof and into the Rocky Mounts tandem rack myself. Previously we had a tall Honda Pilot and it was a difficult two person job to get the Pino on top. Have you solved this problem? Mark

At the moment I'm just using a rear bike rack on the car with added ratchet straps to the roof rack. peugeot 206. Sticks out but not much more than ordinary bikes.

An old aluminium ladder is my plan for roof top travel. The ladder will sit on the ground and leave one end up on the roof rack. Bike can be rolled up the ramp upright, secured using ratchets or even a modded bike holder. Once attached the ladder can be slid up with the bike on and then secured.
