Locost related campervan bed ladder rail cushioning
Purchased an aluminium ladder from a local auction and chopped into two parts. one for the cycle holder on the back and the other for a small ladder
to the bed above the cab. The runs are 30 mm square and quite hard on bare feet. Will do a search on the net for some sort of cushioning, but has
anyone have a pointer to 30 mm u section neopreme, foam?
Thanks, Jon

Personally I wouldn't go for padding, you're still putting your bodyweight on an area 30mm long by maybe 50mm wide (depending on how big
your foot is). Padding will just compress.
We had a similar situation when we were shopping for my daughters cabin bed, the metal framed ones came with very thin rung ladders. We went for a
wooden one and it's far more comfortable because the weight is spread over a larger area. It doesn't need to be much, maybe three or four
inch platforms attached to the rungs with brackets?

Assuming the cycle holder's on the rear outside of the vehicle?
If so wear some shoes.
For the over cab access part then (as per adithorp above) make up some wood steps to fit on.
Job done!
