I've not travelled with a bike for years, but I've ridden to the airport before and handed the bike over as is.
I think there are two schools of thought to flying with a bike:
- Protect it with a bike box and hope nothing gets damaged in transit, or;
- Keep it as bike like as possible and hope the baggage handlers treat it with a modicum of respect
- Protect it with a bike box and hope nothing gets damaged in transit, or;
any advice for getting a boxed bike from new cross to stansted airport on fri sep 13th?
uber xl is eye wateringly expensive, and there's no coach that goes from down this way (that i can see)
this is the part i hate most about bikepacking trips!
