About this route
Send your bike from Louisiana's Tammany Trace to Rhode Island's Newport Ocean Drive, a scenic 10-mile coastal loop. From the flat bayou paths of Cajun country to Block Island's peaceful lanes, your bike ships between the Gulf Coast and the Atlantic with care.
Rhode Island may be the smallest state, but its cycling offerings are surprisingly rich. Newport's Ocean Drive is a stunning 10-mile coastal loop past Gilded Age mansions, rocky shorelines, and harbor views, and it connects to Bellevue Avenue for an extended ride through the historic estate district. Block Island, accessible by ferry, offers 25 miles of quiet roads and dirt paths across a windswept landscape of bluffs, beaches, and saltwater ponds. On the mainland, the East Bay Bike Path runs 14.5 miles from Providence to Bristol along Narragansett Bay, and the Blackstone River Bikeway links Rhode Island to Massachusetts. Louisiana cyclists will find Rhode Island's terrain gently rolling with short but punchy hills, a compact state where you can explore nearly every road in a long weekend.
Shipping your bike from Louisiana to Rhode Island covers approximately 1,500 miles through the eastern corridor. Each bicycle is packed with protective boxing and padding around the frame, fork, and wheelset, with special attention to fragile components like carbon rims and electronic shifting systems. Full coverage is included on every shipment, whether you are sending a road bike for Ocean Drive loops or a hybrid for the East Bay Bike Path. Real-time tracking keeps you informed throughout transit, ensuring you know exactly when your bike will arrive in the Ocean State.
