Please pack efficiently; bring only what you need! Sure we've got trucks to carry all of your stuff, but space and weight are still important concerns. Our gear truck has been carefully calculated to be just the right size if everybody follows the rules. You are limited to two soft-sided bags (just one if you select hotel option) which are not to exceed a total maximum weight of 40 lbs., or individual size of 30”x15"x15". No exceptions. Like the airlines, we will have a test box to see if luggage is the right size. Arrangements to ship oversized gear home will be available. We have a shelf system for stacking luggage in the truck, so please no panniers, hard-sided suitcases, or backpacks on frames.  Soft sided duffel bags stack most easily in the truck. Make sure you'll be able to find your bags: attach luggage tags with your name, crochet a brightly colored yarn pom-pom and tie it to the handle, spray paint your bag a unique color, or pack a slice of limburger cheese inside.  Click here for a list of sample 30"x15"x15" bags available on the web.  

We aren't kidding about that 2 bag limit thing, and the total weight of your transported gear can't exceed 40 pounds.  So, bowling balls are impractical, but lawn chairs, trunks, coolers, cots, flammable fuels, camp stoves and extra bikes are definitely not permitted and will not be allowed on the baggage trucks.  (NOTE:  If you are flying to FANY, and have a travel bike box, please contact FANY and reserve space on the truck for your bike box.)
