Other embodiments are described herein. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A travel system comprising: a first arm and a second arm; a hub pivotally coupled to the first and second arms; a male hitch insert, coupled to the hub, configured to insert within a female hitch; a handle bar support coupled to the male hitch insert and configured to receive a handle bar of a stroller; a void, located between the first and second arms, configured to receive a wheel of the stroller; and a height adjustable riser that couples the handle bar support to the male hitch insert; wherein (a) in a first orientation the riser has a first height between the handle bar support and the male hitch insert and in a second orientation the riser has a second height between the handle bar support and the male hitch insert, and (b) the second height is unequal to the first height. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The travel system of claim 1 comprising a kit, wherein: the kit has a plurality of plates configured to couple to the first and second arms to reduce a diameter of the void; and the diameter is orthogonal to long axes of the first and second arms. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The travel system of claim 1 wherein the riser includes first and second members that telescopically deploy with regard to one another to change between the first and second heights of the riser to accommodate strollers of varying sizes. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The travel system of claim 1 wherein the riser is located between the first arm and a first end of the male hitch insert member. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The travel system of claim 1 wherein the riser is located between first and second opposing ends of the male hitch insert member. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The travel system of claim 5 wherein the hub is located in the second end of the male hitch insert member. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The travel system of claim 1 comprising a latch assembly configured to secure the handle bar to the handle bar support. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The travel system of claim 7 wherein the latch assembly includes a spring. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The travel system of claim 8 wherein the latch assembly includes a spring-loaded bolt coupled to the spring. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The travel system of claim 8 wherein the latch assembly includes a strike plate. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The travel system of claim 1 comprising a self-latching latch assembly configured to secure the handle bar to handle bar support. ### Claim 12 A travel system comprising: a first arm and a second arm; a hub pivotally coupled to the first and second arms; a male hitch insert, coupled to the hub, configured to insert within a female hitch; a handle bar support coupled to the male hitch insert and configured to receive a handle bar of a stroller; a void, located between the first and second arms, configured to receive a wheel of the stroller; and a self-latching latch assembly configured to secure the handle bar to the handle bar support. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The travel system of claim 12 wherein the latch assembly includes a spring. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The travel system of claim 12 wherein the latch assembly includes a spring-loaded bolt coupled to the spring. ### Claim 15 (depends on 12) The travel system of claim 12 wherein the latch assembly includes a strike plate. ### Claim 16 (depends on 12) The travel system of claim 12 comprising a kit wherein: the kit has a plurality of plates configured to couple to the first and second arms to reduce a diameter of the void; and the diameter is orthogonal to long axes of the first and second arms. ### Claim 17 (depends on 12) The travel system of claim 12 comprising: a riser that couples the handle bar support to the male hitch insert; wherein (a) in a first orientation the riser has a first height between the handle bar support and the male hitch insert and in a second orientation the riser has a second height between the handle bar support and the male hitch insert, and (b) the second height is unequal to the first height. ### Claim 18 A method comprising: locating a travel system, coupled to an automobile, comprising: (a) a first arm and a second arm; (b) a hub pivotally coupled to the first and second arms; (c) a male hitch insert, coupled to the hub, configured to insert within a female hitch; (d) a handle bar support coupled to the male hitch insert and configured to receive a handle bar of a stroller; (f) a void, located between the first and second arms, configured to receive a wheel of the stroller; and (g) a self-latching latch assembly configured to secure the handle bar to handle bar support; locating the wheel in the void while maintaining additional wheels of the stroller on the ground; rotating the stroller over the wheel and towards the automobile while simultaneously collapsing the stroller; and securing the handle bar to the handle bar receptacle via the self-latching latch assembly. ### Claim 19 A travel system comprising: a first arm and a second arm; a hub pivotally coupled to the first and second arms; a male hitch insert, coupled to the hub, configured to insert within a female hitch; a handle bar support coupled to the male hitch insert and configured to receive a handle bar of a stroller; a void, located between the first and second arms, configured to receive a wheel of the stroller; and a riser system that couples the handle bar support to the male hitch insert; wherein (a) in a first orientation the riser has a first height between the handle bar support and the male hitch insert and in a second orientation the riser has a second height between the handle bar support and the male hitch insert, and (b) the second height is unequal to the first height. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The travel system of claim 19 comprising a self-latching latch assembly configured to secure the handle bar to handle bar support.
