Expert Reply:
To get your bikes and gear on your roof you need a roof rack. Yakima makes a cross bar mounting kit to mount to your flat roof # Y00425, # Y53TR, # Y00245.
Before loading your bikes and gear on your roof, you need to look in your owners manual for the roof capacity of your Blazer.
I recommend the Yakima Front Loader # Y02103 this is a lighter rack which enhances your ability to keep all of your gear on the roof. This is a great single bike rack because there is no contact with the frame of the bike and the rack is lockable so your bikes will be secure on the top of your roof. This rack also works for wheels up to 29 inches. For your gear, # Y07014-16 works great because it is slim and you can carry your gear with your bikes.
