Bike Boxes

The BTC owns one bike box that is available for members to use. It is a Trico Sports "Iron Case".

Trico Sports’ ultra-light Iron Case® combines three layers of plush foam, heavy duty straps, and Triconium shells to make this the easiest to pack, most secure case for travel. The Iron Case is UPS ready. With its wheels, small strap, and light weight, it is very easy to maneuver through an airport. Hand grips are molded into the case for maneuverability in more constricted areas.

A pull strap and wheels have been incorporated for increased mobility

Bill Syler is currently the caretaker of this case.

There are also BTC members who own bike boxes that they are willing to lend out to other members when they are not in use. One such member is Marty Munson. Marty owns the exact same bike box as the one described above.

If you would like to borrow one of the bike boxes you should contact the folks listed above and/or send out an email to the BTC email list to find out if any boxes are available.
