I recently purchased a 16' Camper Trailer (Airstream Bambi). Big fan, except for one thing - it doesn't have a hitch on the back. There isn't enough room on the jack/tongue for a rack there due to the propane tanks, and I have a SUV so don't want my bike on the roof of the car as it's too tall for my comfort and some local bridges.

The bike doesn't fit in the camper unless I take the front wheel off and with the wheel off it's unstable and will bounce around. Even with the wheel on, if it fit, I don't love it just banging around in there.

Anybody have a similar issue and what was your solution? I've thought of attaching a fork mount to a board and just placing that on the floor of the camper, but that still makes me nervous with it potentially tipping over.

There's those suction cup back window mounts that I suppose I could put on the back of the camper but that makes me nervous as hell since I can't see the bike.

RVing is super new to me, so am kind of lost with this. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Not sure if I should post this here or in the RV sub, maybe both...but here's my question:
