Hi:

I am looking for recommendations on a bag to purchase to take a bike with me when I travel.  The bag needs to survive either being shipped or being in the belly of a plane.

I am leaning towards either a hard case or a combination case (both hard and soft).  Ideally, the least amount of disassembly possible.  Taking the wheels off, no issue; removing the saddle and/or seat post, no issue; potentially open to removing the stem or handlebars. Removing the rear derailiur not going to happen.

Thank you for your thoughts.

When I used to live in Manhattan, I simply took the subway to that popular spot for start of many rides to Long Island. 

But now I no longer live in Manhattan, it's more convenient to drive to the start. I figure there may be others who had done it often and could offer suggestions as to where I should go looking for parking nearby? That would save me going around in circles endlessly looking for parking in the morning. 

Thanks

I thought I once saw a route from NYC to Atlantic Highlands in the library but I can't find it. Anyone know?  Thanks

I'm having trouble navigating the library.  Does anyone have a cue and/or RWGPS link for Johnny's Reef Restaurant in City Island? TIA.

A friend of mine and I want to spend 2-3 days riding in Maine. Neither of us has been up there. Any suggestions on a nice place to stay for a few nights and do 50-60 mile loops (routes?) during the day? (Someplace that's near a good lobster restaurant!)

Thanks.
