Bikes on Eurostar

Hi

Planning on riding to La Rochelle later in the year and then getting the SNCF and Eurostar back to London. Eurostar says it will not take fully assembled bikes and broken down bikes have to be bagged/boxed. Does anyone know if a simple light weight bag will do?

Thanks

Rules have changed a bit recently, you MIGHT be able to get a fully assembled bike on

Thanks. Only those between Brussels and London. I'll be going from Paris.

A simple lightweight bag is fine on the Eurostar, as, in fact, they are on planes.

Yea, it's just for keeping other people's luggage clean; it all goes into the compartment at each end.
