Hi Racpat,
We used a bike shop called Urban Cycle. They were affiliated with bike flights. They charged $20 for each bike box and $80 for labor on each bike and added that cost on top of what bike flights would charge. For us the total for each bike was $260.
It was great to meet you two and ride with you for a few days. We go through Boise in early December on our way down to Arizona. We will give you a call and we can meet for dinner.
Good luck on the rest of your trip.
Safe travels!!
MHC
Congratulations on finishing your trip! We hope our paths will cross again.
Who did you guys use to sip your bikes? Was the bikeshop associated with bike flights? What did they charge to package the bikes? We will likely do the same once we reach Boston.
Tailwinds!
It has been such a pleasure for us to read your journal and participate vicariously in your trip. So many of your experiences resonate with one or both of us. Kerry certainly feels as you do about the joy of just riding a bike. I can relate very well to Janet's struggles and her achievements. Cycling has given me the chance to feel the joy of doing something I never thought I could do. We both feel just as you do about the life partners commitment. (Nothing says togetherness like touring on a tandem!)
We are glad we got to meet you on this trip and wish all of you the very best in your future adventures.
Wow
