Here is the deal, my wife travels to cyclocross races with me; we have a Nissan Sentra that barely fits all of my gear. Now we have a daughter and I don't think we'll be able to fit all of our collective gear into the car. I'm typically carrying two bikes, several additional sets of wheels, along with a big gear bag. I was thinking about getting a rocket box, but I'm not sure that it will fit on the rack due the small size of our car. Anyone have any suggestions? We currently have a Thule 400XT rack with two 518 trays for the bikes. I didn't cut the cross bars when we bought the rack, so the trays could be slid out pretty far.

You may have to think about getting a larger vehicle!

Do you have a hitch on the car? If so, perhaps a gear tray or hitch mounted bike rack and then the cargo box on the roof? Other than that, we've toyed around with the idea of getting a small enclosed trailer to put all of our gear in.

Honestly, you may just have to pack much lighter and take only the bare necessities.

Roof mounted baby seat?

Roof mounted baby seat?

I was waiting for a comment like that. Maybe I could put a 5 point harness and the wife up there.

This is why I bought a wagon - sorry I am of no help

if i can fit two bikes and a box on top of an old vw rabbit, you can fit it on top of a nissan sentra.

grab a couple rack mounted wheel carriers while your at it for the extra wheels and to give your sentra that euro-pro-support look
