  • Have they fixed Eurostar for complete bikes yet?

    I don't think so. But I'm getting OK with rinkoing because once I've done it I can get any train anywhere, any time. No fucking around with bike reservations - which are just about impossible to line up on multi leg journeys, and much less stress to have the bike with me in my carriage.

  • I'd have to build a new bike I think, with external cabling. Aerobars and hydro lines don't make for a particularly easy rinko setup.

  • Yes, I had my front brake hose put on externally so it would be easier to take to bits. And aerobars might be a bit of extra work, but maybe not as I have to take the handlebars off anyway.

    I would have to carry my torque wrench - or maybe use the small ones I got for TCR in 2019 and have never used! And rinko bag. So a bit of extra luggage, but not that bad. Maybe a bin bag to keep all my other stuff together.

    And pedal spanner. And shoes. Or use flat pedals.
