Running shoes. 25% of my travels I take a bicycle. 100% of my travels I take running shoes.

It was the nightmare of dealing with two full-sized cases in rental cars and hotel rooms when we travelled to the Markleeville Death Ride in 2010 that convinced me and the missus to get S&S coupled bikes later that year. And the joy and comfort of riding your own bike that you know intimately versus the vast unknowns of the rental bikes we encountered previously has made us grateful for that purchase again and again and again... But I will note one distinct advantage of rental versus bringing your own travel bike: When we spent a week with a group riding in Mallorca, on the last night of the trip when Ms. Thing and I got got started on the whole disassembling & packing routine, everyone else in the group went out to a bar. |

Another advantage of taking one's own bike is the absence of any feeling of needing to ride every single day in order to justify the price of the rental.

I bought a break away on here. We normally travel overseas every other year. I planned to use it this year only to not be able to renew my daughter’s passport. It took 5 months to get her new passport and our travel window passed. Now I have a extra road bike that I have sunk money into and have to store. I get to use it next year.
I have done the full size travel case twice and won’t do it again. It sucks. Where we go renting isn’t much of an option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
