preparing bike for shipping by plane

[bronx boy_imp]

thanks to you all for the best wishes.
i am meeting with the shipping company on saturday.
i hope that it is only gas and motor oil.
is there a gas filter that i need to worry about?

i ran around the states by myself...and that is how i intend to do europe.
i never enjoyed riding in groups because everyone has different mental clocks and schedules. unfortunately, i can only do one month at a time and then back to work.

i am starting in romania because i have heard that the carpathian mountains have the curviest (is that a word) roads on the continent.

i will take a lot of pictures.
