Grizzly:
Hi All,

My wife and I were recently on a trip to the west coast with friends and we ended up cutting our trip short unfortunately.

I started to experience trouble breathing on day 11 of a 21 day trip when we were in Missoula and then Idaho Falls.  When we reached Jackson I decided to get checked out thinking that it was something more than just the elevation.  Turns out the elevation made things worse but I ended up being hospitalized for 5 days with pneumonia before being flown home with a medical escort.

Now my wife's and my bike are both sitting in Jackson and I'm having to arrange their shipment back home.  The doc tells me I won't feel like riding much for about 6 weeks anyway, so I won't miss having my bikes... just want them back safe & sound in my garage, ya know?

I've done many trips in my day, and this is the first time anything like this has happened.  Compared to others, this is noting - but it still sucks!

Dang, Grizz, now THAT'S a story and trip you will always remember.  Just glad that the ending is good and you are on the road back to good health through His wonderful, healing power. 

If there was some way I could help with getting the bikes back to you, I would but good luck in the effort.  There are a few good, affordable shipping companies out there that others here on the site have used but not sure about which ones would get them across the Canadian border back to your home.  Sent you a PM

What a bummer. Get well quick...

Sorry to hear this... wishing you a speedy and full recovery.

Wishing you a speedy recovery.
We used Haul Bikes back in June and they did good.
Price was close to half the price others wanted.
