Hey all-
Sorry that three of the last 7 posts in this forum have been mine, but I built a cheap and simple bike rack that I thought I'd share. Here are the requirements I had for my design:
Able to be be secured in the bed without drilling holes in the truck
Easily installed and easily removable
Doesn’t obstruct the bed too much
Usable with my tri-fold tonneau opened
Fit under the tonneau when not in use
Doesn’t require lifting the bike over the side of the truck
Cheap!
The rail system with the bike fork blocks would have mostly worked for me, but I wanted to try to save a little cash. Mine is a simple wooden rack that mounts along the side of the bed. Here's a link to the page I put together, complete with a bunch of pictures:

Hopefully it will be of some use to somebody. So far I'm happy with the rack.
