How difficult is it to transport an egg to a competition without cracking the ceramic?  How is it done?

I built a simple cart and put on Pneumatic tires, so I could roll around and over a variety of ground covering.  the nest make the egg top heavy, but it can be done carefully.

Sure wish I had that when I brought my Egg home! most important about trasporting your Egg is it must be cooled down before you travel with it. It is much stronger cool to cold than it is hot!
