The people I've been talking to here in the NE use a frame.
See:  http://users.javanet.com/~appy/sjclinic.htm 

I'm going to make a frame out of 3/4" PVC Electrical Conduit. It has
UV inhibitors that resist deterioration due to sun and is not as brittle
as that used for liquids.  I'm still waiting on details on the levers to
hold the reins (ALSO for it to get above zero degrees!)
