I've got the perfect bike rack for you. Take a look at the Saris MHS Modular Bike Rack for 3 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Tilting, part # SAR35MR. This bike rack is designed to fit 2" trailer hitches and can accommodate a total of 3 bikes. The two positions closest to vehicle cam accommodate bikes up to 80 lbs, and the position farthest from the vehicle can accommodate up to a 35 lb bike.

This hitch bike rack comes loaded with features like, bike and hitch locks, and an easy to access front lever that lets you tilt the rack down even with the bikes loaded so you can access your cargo area, or fold the rack up against the car when not in use. And because of its modular design and nesting wheel trays, it won't block your tail lights when it's in the fold-up position. See photo.

Keep in mind that this rack weighs 102 lbs, so you'll need to make sure the combined weight of this rack, plus your three bikes do not exceed your trailer hitch's tongue weight capacity, or the tongue weight capacity of your vehicle, whichever is lower. You should be able to find this information on a sticker on your trailer hitch and in your owner's manual.
