Shipping or Bringing Your Own Bike
SHIPPING VIA UPS (SHIPPING OPTION AVAILABLE IN LAS VEGAS AND MOAB ONLY)
For $90 we will receive your bike, assemble it, tune it to make sure everything works properly, and disassemble it. You are responsible for the cost of shipping to and from the meeting location. You will be charged for return shipping after the tour. If you are shipping your bike, please write your name, trip, and trip date on the outside of the box AND attach this information to your frame. We must receive all shipped bikes no less than four days before your tour. PLEASE CALL prior to tour FOR EXACT SHIPPING ADDRESS.
In the past, we have had a number of bikes either damaged and/or delayed by UPS. If your bike is damaged, it can take UPS up to three months to pay for damages. Often, using one of our bikes is the most convenient and cost-effective option. Renting our bike means that your bike will be waiting for you and you will not have to worry about the airlines or shipping companies losing or damaging it.
ON THE PLANE
Bringing your bike on the plane can be quite costly (up to $75 each way) and will require you to assemble your bike in your hotel room before the tour. Most hotels will let you store your bike container for the duration of the tour. Due to space constraints, we cannot take your bike box on the tour van. However, if you do want to bring your bike, we recommend bringing it on the plane with you rather than shipping it UPS. Call 888-442-4622 for membership information.
