I want to do some light tours this summer. I'm in San Diego, want to take the train up north a bit and ride south. The problem is Amtrak (according to their website
https://www.amtrak.com/bring-your-bicycle-onboard) my bike is too big.
Carry-On/Trainside: Bicycles up to 50 lbs. Standard bicycle sizes apply. Maximum tire width: 2"
Checked: Bicycles up to 50 lbs. and 70" x 41" x 8.5"
My tires are bigger than 2" and my bike is bigger in every dimension then the spec'd limits (I'm 6'5").
Is Amtrak strict about this? Can I slip the guy $20 to get him to take by bike? Do I gotta get a smaller bike?
