Bike rack bought now need help
Hi, as the result of discussions on the forum I realised I did not have a bike rack, I read about the Thule ones that go on the swan neck tow bar, they looked great so I bought one, a Thule 9503, it was delivered today and I spent a couple of hours building it, it holds 3 bikes and has the in built lights and number plate and looks really cool. The only problem is that I have now realised I don't have a bike, so any ideas of what to get and from where would be appreciated, I will probably need 3 to fill the spaces or it will look odd.
Thanks,

FFS I just went to fit it and I don't have a tow ball
Don't panic, only joking, I found it in the side cupboard in the boot
Pics tomorrow with exhaust trims each side

OK, I have just bought a mountain bike so the bike rack doesn;t look daft empty, you will never believe this but the one I bought folds up and from the sizes would fit in the back of the car never mind I will hide the bolts on the bike so it doesn't look like a fold up bike, delivery Thursday so pics to follow
