about the same price as getting to Paris and back with a bike on Eurostar. And a fucktonne quicker.

and there's the rub... make trains faster and cheaper and more frequent and stick bike cabins on the bastards and embrace multi-modal travel OR just keep pumping out cheap flights and cars so that people don't even think about trains as an option.

Annoyingly, it was kinda cheaper/more convenient 10+ years ago. You could take your bike on Eurostar in a big bag as luggage or whack it in the bike cabin fully built up for a nominal fee. We've gone backwards since.

I know. I used it for Londres-Paris, PBP, got trains over to Race Around the Netherlands, both times I went to watch the Tour... and then Bexit happened and it fucked the service.
