bike box

Postby Alan M » Wed Oct 11, 2006 9:42 pm

I am going to Guatemala mid November for a month and want to take my Mountain bike. Continental Airlines stipulate a hard sided box and charge $95 each way. Of course, I realise that I could go with cardboard but if anyone has a loaner bike box for a month I will bring them back some Mayan mementos and of course reimburse if there is any damage.

You're quite welcome to borrow my giant-sized bike suitecase for the trip[ Alan.

But, be aware that a proper bike case is somewhat harder to store than a cardboard box.

For rent, I'll just ask for a large toblerone.

Alan, are you coming to the "Least Eastway extravaganza" this weekend?

If so, I could put the giant suitcase in the back of the car and pass it to you there.

Thanks
