Winnebagos were a real popular camper/ RV line back in the day, and might still be for all I know. There might be a connection? Check this out, it might or might not help you.

WINNEBAGO Recreational Vehicles is indeed still going strong! Something tells me that these bikes were part of a promotion to get people to buy RV's that may very well have come with matching his & hers bikes. RV owners are as passionate about their rigs as anybody else when it comes to personal interest. I suppose if you went to http://www.trailerlife.com/cforum/ and posted pictures of these, some of those people would claw at one another to get to these bikes!

That is precisely what I was thinking, I hadn't heard of Winnebago offering such a promotion but I remembered what our city JEEP dealers did one summer, free JEEP mountain bikes with a new purchase.
