Erg And Air Travel - Suggestions?

[[old] mbz]

Hi everyone!<br><br>I'd like to take my ERG along for travel/work. The original box is gone - and was big, anyway.<br>Have you used another box, like a professional bicycle container etc, to ship your erg?<br><br>Thank you for all suggestions!<br><br><br>Boris

Let us know how that goes....<br><br>seriously, find a club at your destination (general health or rowing), and use that. I know that C2 has a register of thier Dyno's, and I thought they used to have a register of available ergs for use in travel destinations.

I read in another post that somebody wanted to sell a used erg, and had to ship it. There was a suggestion to order a new, empty shipping box with the packaging materials from C2 in order to ship the erg to the buyer.<br><br>So, if you are determined to take your own erg with you, that's a plan.<br><br>Good luck.

Locating a health club where you are going is a good idea.<br><br>I've also had some pretty good luck with requesting an erg at the locations I'm going to. I recently came back from a cruise, and had requested that an erg be on the ship. They did it.<br><br>I'm also currently on my way to Thailand (In the plane as I type - ain't technology cool?!!), and requested that the hotel find an erg for me. They couldn't get ahold of one, but supplied me with a host of health clubs within walking distance of the hotel.<br><br>Dwayne

I am taking a transatlantic cruise next year and would VERY much like to 'row' across the pond!<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Z
