Some questions. Do you have fenders? If so, they need to be dealt with. The "ideal" solution for Honjo type rear fender is to split it up at the brake bridge with a connector tab. If you don't have one move on.
What kind of shifters? If you have downtube shifters you're
already there. Bar ends or brifters, you need to find a way to
separate the shift cables so that you can remove bar and stem. If
you are using downtube shifter boss cable stops the IRD QR stop
will help, and you'll need cable splitters on the shifter cables.
Cartridge headset? Good. Learn how to undo it and put it back together and readjust it.
I think Rivs already have split cable stops..
Review the "how to rinko" documents to see what you need to do.

Shifters are on downtube, making it easier to rinko.
Cantilever brakes, which is easier than sidepulls, though I think you can manage it with sidepulls.
Rear fender is not splitted; I just take the whole thing off.

I, too, have been wondering about Rinkoing my Sam. If you’re flying, don’t you still need a hardshell to protect a Rinkoed bike?
