As Adventure Cyclists start to make plans for their early season tours a question looms large overhead -- how do I get my bicycle to the start of the ride? Recent airline crackdowns on luggage, along with the general complexity of disassembling and reassembling your bike can be stressful and frustrating.
Luckily, we’ve created a How-To Guide for you to check out, outlining your airline and mailing choices. Ground shipping is becoming increasingly attractive, and some folks are even using Amtrak and Greyhound as methods of bicycle movement. I'm sure readers have some creative ideas that we'd love to hear! Of course, there’s always the old standby: wheeling your bike to the local shop and having an expert make the call.
