<DIV><SPAN class=338205014-18062002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I'm
heading out later in September and have been getting very mixed signals on
feasibility of taking bikes on the trains, particularly in Spain. Whether or
not you are allowed to do so seems to be at the whim of the conductor and/or
local stationmaster.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=338205014-18062002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>My
game plan at this point is to fly in to Paris and get a connecting flight to
Biarritz and then bike or local train to St Jean Pied de Port which I
understand is about 40km away. For the return I'm thinking of shipping the
bike home from Santiago (after this trip I don't think I'll be back in the
saddle any time too soon) and training to the French border and then cab or
whatever back up to Biarritz.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Goudy Old Style" size=4>I plan to fly San Francisco to
Paris then train to Le Puy with my bicycle. What are the problems
putting a bicycle on the train from Paris to Le Puy and Santiago to Paris
? Any response from cyclists who have done the journey would be
appreciated. I fly Sept 10t.</FONT></DIV>
