He can't be much of a fan, Virgin have changed their sports equipment policy:
We’ve recently made some changes to our baggage policy. It means that, for bookings made on or after 31 August 2016, your sports baggage will be included in your overall checked baggage allowance. So:
You’ll be able to carry sports equipment (up to 23kg and 190 x 75 x 65cm) as part of your checked allowance.
One extra piece of sports equipment (up to 23kg and 190 x 75 x 65cm) will cost 65 GBP / 100 USD / 100 CAD.
If you want to bring any extra sports equipment in addition to the above, you’ll need to pay our standard excess charges, including oversize charges (where applicable).
There’s no change to our policy of charging for additional, overweight or oversize baggage.For bookings made before 31 August 2016, our previous sports equipment policy will still apply: allowing one extra piece of sports equipment in addition to your checked baggage allowance.

Interesting Ta, but what else will you be taking other than the bike box?
Mine was well over weight, what with loads of extra seats and all inside, but they were cool about it both ends #winningcharm
Was that you Laura that had US Security chop up your Di2 wires?

Tweet beardy, he's a fan of endurance events.
When I flew over with Virgin/ Delta they really "got it". Trans American travel is part of their national psyche, you'll find people getting very excited when you tell them about it, which is nice when you're not feeling the love.
