Default ramps

does anyone in the San Antonio or Houston area use a ramp - like the Black Widow, to load their bikeson to their trucks? I'm thinking about getting one, but would like some feedback? thanks.

and, no - it's not feasible to ride everytime and everywhere - it's either a trailer or ramps. because of my garage situation, and the deed restrictions (no trailers in driveway or on the side of the house) I'm leaning towards a set of ramps.

What the man(if you can call him that, I mean, he is form Nu Yok)is trying to say is this:

OR

Check 'em out, take into consideration the ground clearnce of your scoot. So that when you transition from the ramp to the bed of the truck/trailer, you don't high center on the frame. Of course there are others out there, and I'm sure, others will log in with more and even better ones. I use single wide aluminum fold up, but I use a snowmobile trailer, so not high up in the air like a truck. How the h*ll do you ppl live with those covenants, rules and chit like that?
Good luck, oh, and one more thing:


Silly yuppie, trailer are for boats!!! j/k
