Default towing?

I am thinking about getting a tow hitch for my 1999 A6 2.8q automatic to tow 2 dirt bikes on a small trailer. Each bike is around 200lb. My biggest concern is the transmission... Should I be worried of it overheating? The weight is very minimal so I think it should be alright. What do you guys think? Also, are there any tow hitches that kinda hide under the bumper (look clean)? One time at the MX Track I saw this guy towing 2 bikes with a toyota matrix... lol
something like this would be great http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQNZmfPY2TY

it will be alright. just go slow. i would be worrying about trailer sway on highway speeds.
