Check Bikeflights, but I bet it will be more than $500 per bike. British Airways is pretty good about accommodating sports equipment: https://www.britishairways.com/en-us/information/baggage-essentials/sporting-goods-and-musical-instruments And I think the worst you'd get is an oversize baggage fee. Free Country<http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15749759-free-country> is the book Jay refers to. I found it a pleasant read, with some very humorous bits, including scrounging a child's bike for part of the trip. I've only thought about riding that route so I can't give firsthand experience but I know there are plenty of guidebooks available. happy trails! jim m walnut creek, ca On Thursday, July 6, 2017 at 10:41:37 AM UTC-7, Jay in Tel Aviv wrote: I read a book recently about 2 guys who did it without any money or equipment.
