Here are a few questions I need tourers to answer. Yes, tourers, people who tour with their bikes!
- I've bought a new alcohol stove. Can I pack it?
- How about the alcohol? Can I pack that too?
- Matches, I'm very confused about matches. Can I pack them?
- Anything else I should know before I bike to the airport?
Alcohol and matches are available in Amsterdam....no worries there!
As to the rest, I've never flown with a bike, so I'll leave that to others to answer as I couldn't even answer that under the old rules!
Have fun on your tour and we'll look forward to hearing about it when you are back!
