For your short haul to the beach a spare tire mounted bike rack would probably work.
You might be able to modify the mount for this gas can to accept a bike rack?

Thanks D-Dan..There are spare tire rack mounts also that I have seen that bolt right to the spare tire like the one
tnd2 linked me to in the post below yours..
The only hassle is that I run a Soft Fabric Tire Cover to protect the Spare from UV damage. It would be a real pain removing it and installing the rack on the spare each time.
I bought this Bike Rack from Walmart for $84.00 in the store..before I posted here. The problem is that when you remove the vertical arm from the receiver stalk ...the stalk is about 1 1/2 " to high and interferes with the tire and door opening.

My solution I think is to cut that 1 1/2" off and re-drill a new bolt hole so it will clear the tire. I thought I'd post here first in case there was someting better out there before I cut it and couldn't return i t.
Thanks for your help and input.
