We borrowed the GABA club bike boxes and packed up the Surlys for their trip to the east coast. We're sending them ahead to our friend Liz's place in Boston to avoid the current airline rates. On American Airlines at the moment it would end up being $150 per bicycle each way to use the bike boxes, or $600 total for the trip. Mailing them via FedEx ground takes a week and costs less than half. Hopefully we'll see them again in Boston! Only 9 days till departure, time to start looking at the maps a little more closely :-)
Patricia,
ReplyDeleteIf you had left the gringo in Paraguay, you could have kept that $40 and saved $300 in bicycle shipping costs..... what were you thinking??!!! :-)
