New Interior Bike Rack Setup(Pic Inside)

I recently got bicycles and did not want to spend ~$300 for either a roof or hitch rack. So for <$50 I got some fork mounts (Thule Low Rider), a 2x4, & some screws & washers and made my own interior bike mount.

The xB never ceases to amaze me with the things that fit inside of it. I love the utility.

Thanks for the comments guys. This was just an idea that I threw together in 15min. Definitely version 1.0 that could use some beautification like paint or carpet, but just wanted to show other owners what is possible.[/table]
