The End
That's all there is to it. To mount the bikes, lift them up and place the top wheel in the hook. Then roll the back wheel into the corner of the of the supports at approximately a 30 degree angle off of center. If you want, you can add runners to the top of the base so you always put the bicycle in straight, but this isn't necessary.

You'll note that the pictures show a much higher vertical than what I've recommended. I was making it as I went, and wasn't really sure how high to place the support for the bicycles I had, so I left the 2x4's at the 7' length that I found them in. Ignore that fact.

I hope you've gotten some use out of this instructable. As I said at the beginning, the whole premise was to make a second generation of zzpza's design. Thanks go to him for posting his instructable, the Berkeley Public Library for an awesome tool library, Ari for moving tools and materials around in her car, and school for making me poor and leaving me need the cheapest possible options. Also, graphics were made in Google Sketchup. The dimensioned image was done in AutoCAD. Photos were taken with an old cell phone. Ciao!
