While catching up on recent news by and about The Man in Seat 61 I stumbled upon this fun story of how two brothers traveled from London to Sardinia and Back by Train & Ferry with Bikes and Tents to Boot, a two week vacation…
See the Bike in the Bag photo (above, from their story), quite a bit to haul!
On a practical note, in our Consumed to Thrifty times I suggest you check How to buy cheap European train tickets by Mark Smith (The Man in Seat 61).
He gives you step by step instructions on what to do.
Contrary to what I thought, he suggests that point to point tickets can be cheaper for US or Canadian travelers than Rail Passes.
