Different seasons, different racks. Same car. Here is a 2006 VW Touareg bike rack for summer and the same car racked up as a VW Touareg ski and snowboard rack for the winter. In both modes, one thing stays constant, and that is the Thule 430 Tracker II base rack system, which uses the Thule TK1 to attach to the VW Touareg roof tracks. During ski and ride season, the Thule 91725 Flatttop 6 ski & snowboard rack hauls skis and boards to the mountain and during bike season, two Rocky Mount PitchFork bike racks carry the bikes to the trail.

I spy a Volvo XC90 hitch mount bike rack and roof kayak rack using the Yakima FullSwing 4 hitch bike rack, which has been replaced with the Yakima SwingDaddy hitch mounted bike rack for four bikes and two sets each of the Yakima HullyRollers kayak rollers and the Yakima Mako Saddles kayak saddles mounted to the Yakima LowRider base system, which has been replaced with the Yakima RailGrab System.
This Volvo XC90 bike and kayak rack has the right idea. Using the Yakima FullSwing 4 bike rack (no longer available, replaced with the Yakima SwingDaddy hitch bike rack) installed into the 2″ receiver hitch, access to the rear of the vehicle is not an issue, even when the rack is loaded with four bikes. Mounted to the Volvo XC90 factory side rails is the Yakima LowRider rail system (like the FullSwing 4, it too has been disctontinued and is now the Yakima RailGrab System). For carrying two kayaks, there are two sets each of the Yakima HullyRollers kayak rollers and the Yakima Mako Saddles kayak saddles.
