ABSTRACT:
A rack for storing and transporting a plurality of bicycles including an array of rails arranged side by side and having elongated slots for receiving brackets, each bracket detachably attachable to the fork of a bicycle so as to maintain the bicycle in an upright position. The brackets can be oriented so that the handle bars can be turned and each bracket positioned at a location on the rails so that the bicycles can be nested close to one another thereby permitting storing and transporting the plurality of bicycles in a confined space such as the cargo space of a van or sports utility vehicle. The rack is removably attached to a flat surface by a combination of straps to prevent separation of the rack from the flat surface and non-slip material to prevent sliding of the rack on the flat surface.
