Michelle and I are planning an overseas trip and are interested in hearing how others handle packing and transporting your riding gear, helmets, etc....I've only had to fly to California once with riding gear and that was prior to 9/11 so I didn't really have to think about things like taking wired heated jackets in a carryon or worrying about the number of helmet bags I put into an overhead. I'm not sure that in today's world I would comfortably bring my Gerbings in a carry on bag. On that trip I had the luxury of meeting up with friends who were driving a cage so overpacking was an option also. I don't want to overpack on this trip since we will be traveling exclusively by bike. I was thinking to maybe FEDEX items to a starting point but that seems like it might be a logistical nightmare also and would probably cost me as much as buying all new gear once I got there. Hearing what other people do is always a huge help....Nothing like a little preplanning to make things run smoothly.
