Yep, I will probably use bike flights. However I own a soft sided bag for the TT bike (because minimal disassembly is required with this bag). Mr. H does not want to use it for the road bike because that assembly/disassembly is not as big of a deal. So we're borrowing a hard case, which we pick up tomorrow, and that's what it will travel in. He's opposed to anything less than the hard case because this is the Magic Bike after all. Once we get the case & know its exact size/weight, we can check the Bike Flights cost and can figure out if it makes more sense to ship it vs carry as luggage (which I'm surprised to learn is only $75 each way). This is why I need a little lead time.

I am thinking if I don't ride with any of y'all in Denver, I'll just ship the bike to/from Breck and not have to mess with getting a vehicle big enough to fit luggage plus the bike box

Sweet that you're in for the 19th.
