Subject: RE: Should I ship my bike or bring it on the plane?I'd be more inclined to get it on the plane with me than ship with an external vendor, but you have to weigh the costs. If you can ask around, another local triathlete may have a bike box you can borrow? Or, a friend of mine put hers on the plane in a cardboard bike box - the kind they ship new bikes to the local bike shop in, so you could check with a LBS to see if they have any laying around. She put hers on the plane and just got one of those airport carts at baggage claim to get it out to the car. |
