Need to borrow Car Child Seat and Bike Rack

Dear all.

My family and grandchildren arrive in 10 days time. I need to borrow a child car seat suitable for a 2 year old.

I also need a bike rack that will fit on my TJ spare tyre as my son in law is coming to do the AD Triathlon and I need to transport his very expensive racing bike to and from training sessions and on race day.

Can anyone help me so I don,t have to buy new for the sake of 2 weeks use.??

Big thanks.
Mac

Depends on the weight of the child, I have one suitable for 15-36 kg child that I can spare for 2 weeks.
As for the bike rack, have one for you, but you need to try it and adjust it to make sure it fits.
Hope this helps.

So do I!! Great response all, Moe the baby seat will be fine for weight I will need it from 24Th Feb until 5th March if that is ok, let me know and we can meet up just before then.

Thanks again all, the bike rack I am looking for needs to clip on to the spare wheel.

I will happily let you borrow the rack and you can see if it fits. I also have a bike which you can borrow. Its still in the packing box from when I moved here ....... 5 years ago!

The rack used to fit on the back of our car in the UK and is adjustable.

Anyway, shout up and I can drop it round, or tell you where it is at the villa.

Will do buddy, but as this is the day before the big race I don,t know what his training schedule is as he is doing the full Tri, not the short course, he is nuts of course!!! But he is representing the British Fire Service, so very proud of him.

Moe, marshal meeting will be fine and if the rack does not fit it gives me time to try Sam,s.

Great club!!
