Steve > This is true. I travel to Hawaii every year to visit in-laws. I bought a Paul Taylor fillet brazed/ritchey breakaway frameset in April 07 with the intent to bring it with me. It looks like the one here: http://www.taylorbicycles.com/assets/images/db_images/db_254-Paul-Taylor-Photos-0131.jpg At the time, "oversized" luggage was consider 70" cubic inches. However, by the time I was planning to bring it on a trip to Hawaii in August, the airlines lowered the limit to 62". As stated above, the case measures 67" and is now considered "oversized" luggage. It would have cost about $100 each way to bring the bike. I left the bike home and decided to just hit the beach as I refused to give in to the hype.Brewster --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
