Transporting on a pickup vs. trailer.

What's the best way to avoid getting road salt spray on the track and bike while hauling the bikes in a pick up truck?

Road spray

I've used a cover that I made with a draw string around the bottom. Under the larger cover I had a smaller cover made for the bike. It worked much better than no cover but, still got small amounts of spray under it and had to tie down well or became a balloon. Overall a PIA. I am looking at a promaster cargo van and believe my bike will be inside from now on.
