This might be a bit of a long shot.
I will be traveling to Germany and The Netherlands as support staff for an Australian National Sporting Team in June and July. I am also racing in Kona in October so I need to keep some sort of training going. Taking my bike across on the flight with the rest of the team equipment would be seriously frowned upon. Posting it across is looking to be seriously expensive. Renting a decent bike is probably my best option but that is looking very expensive as well (might just have to). Are there any other options I've overlooked? Does anybody have any contacts in those countries (the tournament, and most of our time, will be in Breda, Netherlands) that might be able to rent or loan a decent bike - any good road bike will do, TT bike even better, a 51cm frame Cervelo P5 is what I normally ride and will be racing on. Cervelo reps maybe? I know its a long shot but you can't blame a guy for trying....
