Carrying bicycle on R1200GSA

[clownmidget]

Looking for creative solutions to carrying/transporting a bicycle (gravel bike or hardtail MTB) on a R1200GSA with the full rack and hard cases.

If you feel obliged to start a response that doesn't address this - like "horrible idea", "unsafe", etc. - please move on, nothing to see here.

Neither bicycle is >25 lbs and I'm not looking to max out the carrying capacity in terms of other luggage or gear. Just looking to have a chance to pedal at some of my destinations. Obviously ratcheting straps could likely get the job done but trying to keep things more tightened up. Thanks in advance.

Sorry but, I don't know the brand of this rack but I see them up and down the canyon heading to the trailheads here in Colorado several times a summer. Never seen a problem with them.

Goodluck!

Ah, yes, that's what I was thinking but Google searches don't return anything but likely because I'm not using the correct terms. Thanks!
