During a recent weekend away our neighbour at the campsite was quick to advise us that our cycle carrier was illegal and he was surprised we had not been stopped by the Police (3pts and a fine!) This came as a shock especially as we will be on our travels in 2 weeks from England to France for 3 months. The cycles are an essential part of the trip and I am using a tow ball fixing cycle rack, which I accept does have movement over bumps. The cycle rack has flexibility as it is not fixed to the motorhome but I don't expect the rack to collapse. We have a tail board with registration plate and operational stop / directional lights. I have checked Police cycle laws but cannot find clear direction on the suitability of my cycle carrier. Can anyone help or direct me to a suitable information source, thank you.
