Have you ever wondered how to fly with your beloved bicycle without damaging it or breaking the bank? Join us, Adam and Michael, the Cycling Men of Leisure, as we share our experiences and valuable tips on preparing and packing your bike for air travel. From soft-sided cases and cardboard boxes to shipping options, we've got you covered.
We'll guide you through the process of disassembling and protecting your bicycle for its journey, including loosening components, marking them, and releasing air pressure from the tires. Discover how to pack your bike securely, using the right tools and techniques, such as the Tully Round Trip Sport hard-sided case. Plus, we'll explore ways to either purchase air cartridges or avoid their expenses altogether.
In this entertaining episode, we also discuss airline policies for flying with bikes, and some clever hacks like using pool noodles for extra frame protection. As leisurely cyclists ourselves, we understand the importance of having a safely packed and prepared bike for our next adventure. So, whether you're planning a ride across Georgia or exploring new trails, let us help you confidently take your trusted two-wheeler along for the ride.
