Abstract

In one aspect, a tailgate covering for a pickup truck has three segments for positioning against three respective surfaces of the pickup truck's tailgate. Modular pads are also included and may be couplable to the covering at various positions to provide cushioning for diagonal downtubes of bicycles that are being transported in the bed of the truck. The modular pads may therefore provide protection at the top inner ridge of the tailgate to protect both the tailgate and the bicycle. The modular pads may be swapped in and out and repositioned as desired. Additional modular pads may be included on the front of the covering and may be moved to different vertical positions to accommodate backup cameras at different locations on different truck models. The covering may also include innovative straps that couple the covering to the tailgate while reducing potential damage to the tailgate otherwise caused by the straps.
