I just flew with my bike to/from Denver (we spent the weekend in Estes Park). All was in good condition when I arrived in CO, the bag had been inspected, but nothing out of place. I got home to find the bag was mispacked, TSA clearly dug deep into the bag and had no clue how to put it back together or simply didn't care to repack it correctly. I love how the Delta agent asked me to sign a waiver since the bag isn't 'hard case' ... it is but not a plastic shell. I don't care how good I am at protecting my bike, after TSA mishandles it ... what the hell can I do?!? (I just got home late last night and have not assembled the bike yet, I'm just pissed seeing the first impressions of TSA's handling of my bike bag)

For reference, my bag is the Thule Roundtrip
