Kind of off topic I know, but I figured this would be the best place to ask and get the best response.
I've got a place as a volunteer at CP1 for TCR No. 6 and I'm planning on having my own mini adventure in the style of the race, to test my appetite for a possible 2019 entry.
Therefore, I'm riding to CP1 in Austria from Paris after hopping on Eurostar, then once my duties at CP1 are done, I thought I'd follow the race to CP2 in Slovenia, then fly home from Ljubljana.
Obviously I'll be travelling super light, so I can't lug packing material around with me. I can't find any information as to whether the handing agent at Ljubljana airport offers any assistance with packing bikes and don't want to rock up relying solely on my blagging skills!
Has anyone here experienced travelling like this before? How did you solve the problem of packing up your bike for a flight from scratch?
My fall back option is just to route back to Paris and get the train again, but that seems a bit boring and I'd like to go somewhere I've never been.
Thanks in advance for your advice and experience!
