A little piece about bike traveling cases posted in The New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/12/fashion/12physical.html

I just bought a new truck, and now I am faced with the obstacle of transporting my bike. I used to have a Thule rack on my car with 2 bike carriers and 2 wheel holders. However, now I can't just see myself laying my bike in the bed of the truck, nor do I want to use my hitch. So,...for those of you out there with trucks, do you recommend a specific Truck bed, bike holder?

We are doing a half in Switzerland in June. We got plane tickets today and now we need to figure out how to get our bikes there. Tribike transport doesn't look like an option. We can borrow bike boxes/cases. Do we trust the airlines?
