Look forward to the pix. One of the attractions of re-cycling cardboard boxes is the cost. On point to point tours, it's simplest to abandon your boxes at the start & scrounge up some materials at the end. It's a problem when you have a dedicated, expensive bike case, even on supported tours.

Tournado I went the route of retrofitting my Landshark tourer [64 cm] and make 2 carboard boxes 26" x 26" x 10". I put the 700 c wheels in one [with 38's] which must be deflated to fit. I put the frame with crank attached in the other. I pack my clothes and Hoss and Hobo in and around and secure with 2 web straps pependicular to each other. I can walk carrying each box and I have a small backpack [with my helmet and carry on stuff] I am in the process of making my second set of boxes for a trip next month. I will take pictures when done.
