Hi Ian and pen
I would be concerned that the holders would fail due to the corrugations, plus your bikes would be sandblasted by the gravel. They might be safer on the roof of the car than on the camper, if you are able to mount them there, and if its not too high to access them (watch out for low branches or underpasses) - but will the holders stand up to hundreds of Kilometres or corrugations? We are considering getting folding bikes that can go inside our little hybrid, both for weight issues and to protect them. Good luck, sounds like a fabulous trip.
Cheers
Lisa
