Have a look here: http://www.users.on.net/~njpayne/bikestuff/TandemRoofrack.jpg. It cost me about $20 to build and works fine for single bikes as well as tandems. It's just a piece of 100x30 timber with smaller pieces at each end forming a slot for the tyres to sit in. The timber is fastened to the roofrack cross member with a couple of U-bolts. For the tandem, we lift it onto the rack together, and then the stoker stands on the rear bumper and holds the bike while I lash the ropes down to each side to hold it in place. For a single I can manage the whole thing myself. It takes a couple of minutes to fix in place, and we've driven many thousands of kilometres using that rack to transport bikes and never had a single problem.
