For those who use, or want to use, three wheeled bikes, but have not found a good way to travel with them on or in the RV, there is a neat alternative called Outriggers that might fit the bill. They are basically "training wheels" that attach to virtually any two wheeled bike, and stabilize it like a three wheeled bike. They are not hard to install or remove, and you can take them off and carry the bike on a regular bike rack, while keeping the Outriggers in a seperate storage compartment. They can be re-installed on the bike when you get to your destination. I got a set for my wife's bike and they are very sturdy and stable. The 16" are high pressure to be used with street "racing" style bikes, while the 12" are lower pressure for use with normal road or mountain style bikes.
