Trains are much nicer than planes IMO

They are. The views from the train yesterday evening as it made its way down the valley were superb.

caveat: in Europe. Or Japan. Or probably most places other than the UK.

My experience of travelling on UK trains with a bike has mostly been good to be fair. YMMV of course.

Our Swiss clients have commented favourably on UK railways when we meet them off the train. As do the Germans and Austrians.

Does anyone know any more about changes to the Eurostar bike policy? I think somewhere in this thread there's a suggestion that in 2025 there might be a change meaning you could take fully assessed bikes to Paris again.

Just had a look on the Eurostar site and doesn't seem to be the case at the moment.
