Step 2Drill holes in center cross member
Find the middle of the center cross member and make a mark 1 1/2" on either side of the middle. Now make a mark every 3" on both sides. The 3" spacing seems to work well for most bike tires/wheels. Commercial bike racks also have 3" spacing between the vertical supports.
Next, drill a 1" deep hole the same diameter as the ski pole or other vertical support at each mark. We drilled eight holes using a 3/8" bit with a masking tape stop at 1" for our bike rack. You can modify the design for more or less bikes.
