I would suggest you take it over on the plane, iv taken my bike on the plane a few times and never been charged for it. Just make sure its very clean and pack it up into a box, try and keep the box weight under 25kg to avoid extra charge for heavy item. And ask the baggage check-in to put it in as a fragile item. Also stuff your clothes around the bike and between frame and wheels to avoid rubbing marks. |

Turn your bars sideways. Take your pedals off or mount them on the other side of your cranks, so they face inwards. Lower your tyre pressure. Pipe lagging (from your local DIY store) makes good padding for frame tubes. When you get to the UK head to Wales.
