For parking a bicycle, a bicycle parking device includes a storage tray, a lifting mechanism, and a rotary platform. The storage tray is located at the bottom of the bicycle parking device and has a plurality of bicycle parking spaces. The lifting mechanism drives a bicycle carrying platform to move up and down. The rotary platform that is rotatably disposed on the lifting mechanism and is docked with the bicycle parking space. The bicycle carrying platform transfers between the bicycle parking space and the rotary platform.

A modular securement device may include a receiver coupler configured to be removably coupled to a vehicle hitch. A mounting plate may be coupled to the receiver coupler. A first slot may extend longitudinally along a top surface of the mounting plate, and a second slot may also extend longitudinally along the top surface of the mounting plate and may be spaced apart from the first slot. An optional support base may be moveably coupled to the mounting plate via engagement with the first or second slot. A crank receiver may be coupled to the support base. A lateral support may also be coupled to the support base, and a wheel support may be coupled to the lateral support.

A vehicle roof top or pickup bed mountable bicycle transport apparatus designed to utilize a novel bicycle loading and unloading method to overcome the difficult loading and unloading drawbacks of currently available apparatuses in the art by effectively reducing the weight of the bicycle, as experienced by the loading and unloading person, by reducing the height the bicycle is required to be lifted to and by offering equal access to the vehicle's entire cargo area available for transporting bicycles. The apparatus consists of a horizontal platform element to roll the bicycle on and along during the loading and unloading processes, raised horizontal guide rail elements to guide and retain the bicycle along and within the confines of the platform during the loading and unloading processes, and vertical stabilizing elements to provide longitudinal and transverse stability for the bicycle during the transport process.

A bicycle rack is described with a retention arm for securing a wheel of the bicycle to the bicycle rack. The retention arm is provided with a tire chock for contacting the tire of the bicycle. An adjustable tire chock may be positioned on the retention arm to secure different sizes of bicycles with different sizes of wheels on the bicycle rack. The adjustable tire chock may have latching components that can be released by a user with a single hand by applying opposing or rotational forces to the latch components or the tire chock. The latch components may be provided with a biasing mechanism to urge them into a latch or engaged position when aligned with latching features on the retention arm.
