I was actually surprised the rest of the bike turned out relatively okay. Scratched up all over but relatively okay. .
I had a similar issue with Fedex. They broke the dropouts, Fortunately, it was on the way home.
They ended up paying for the fork,
What I have done lately is to strap two light weight boards to the fork to add as a buffer. This trip, I had zero extra room so I tapped the spacer to the fork instead.
