I'm biking from Calais to St. Jean Pied-du-Port in September following the appropriate pilgrim's routes and when I finish I will return to Biarritz airport for the flight back. Anyone know of a bike shop in Biarritz or Bayonne where I can get my bike boxed up for the Ryanair flight back? Or does anyone have any experience of getting their bike transported back to the UK by courier/post?
Flesh permitting, I'll be walking the Camino next year from SJPP to Santiago.

Hi
There is a decathlon store a few kms from the airport, they might be able to help. Google throws up a bike shop in the middle of Biarritz they may be able to help.
Lastly if near airport day before your flight you might be lucky enough to get a discarded box
Buen camino

Hi,

The Velo News 64 store in Bidart -- not far from the airport -- sells the VAUDE products as bike bags.

... but you have perhaps -- because it's not a big store ? -- to ask them to order what you want before you arrive in Biarritz.
