These are the bad boys you are looking for. Super easy to do and undo and much more secure then bungies. There are cheaper versions, but these are the ones I use for almost everything.

As noted - rent the Uhaul bike trailer. It's got a low deck, long attached ramp and bit of a built in chock.

Get 4 tie downs like:

And 4 Soft-Straps like: http://www.amazon.com/Ancra-45214-14-Black-Soft-Extensions/dp/B0012TWXFI/

Or 4 of the straps with the soft Loop built in:

From here I'll assume you got the separate soft straps

  • Run a soft-strap around each fork leg, above the lower triple
  • Run a soft-strap around something sturdy, behind the front-rear center of gravity.
  • Make sure the bikes in neutral and push it up into the trailer and into the chock. If the chock won't hold the bike stable without you support, just lean it on the side stand.

    Assuming it's on the side stand:

  • Hook up both front tie down straps and tension the right side, and leave the left a bit of slack
  • Raise the bike to roughly level, and take the slack out of the right strap, tensions the left equally.
  • Tweak until the bike is perpendicular to the trailer floor
  • Lightly tension the front straps, working each side.

    Assuming the chock holds it near upright:

  • Hook both straps and tension them lightly
  • Tweak until the bike is perpendicular to the trailer floor
  • Lightly tension the front straps, working each side.

  • Hook on the rear straps
  • Tension them
  • Give the front set another pass
  • It's never a bad idea to re-tension the straps after a little bit of time on the road.

I like cam straps because they're easier to work with than ratchet straps. I have Ancra straps that are fantastic. I'd definitely buy them again. I also prefer to use use Canyon Dancers to hold the bike still in my truck bed, but its rear wheel is nestled into the corner of the bed and acts as a chock, sort of.

I have a 5-gallon VP Racing fuel jug. It has served me well, but it's tough to mess that up. I imagine any decent jug with a hose will do.

My ramp is a generic folding metal one from Amazon. Says Raider on the side, but it's exactly like that one I linked. It takes some getting used to, but I use it to get my bikes into and out of my truck bed by myself. Even the one without a kickstand.
