Plenty of nooks to stash things on a bike. Who knows how much a bike weighs anyway.

I'll be in San Antonio for Spring Break this next week. I could possibly help if you want me to, maybe meet the seller part of the way. Just a possibility, I know San Antonio probably isn't far enough South, but I am willing to help if you can get something figured out.

Texans are steering clear of "way down south" lately.
Unless you have business or family, there's too much hanky-panky going on in the border region.
