The rack and fairing in the pics of my wagon are great. Very little wind noise and I've had over 100 pounds up there with no problems. The foot pack that grabs the drip rail can support even more weight.

If you get a Thule rack, I'll show you the locking Thule bike racks I have that attach to the cross bars when you are here for the GTG. I'd give you a great deal on both if you like them. I believe they work with other cross bar types as well.

I'll be using my trailer hitch bike rack, so these won't see any use.
