Long-distance cycling transport across the United States is our specialty. Every shipment travels through our vetted carrier network, fully tracked in real time from pickup to delivery. As domestic shipping, there is no customs clearance needed, so your bike moves seamlessly across state lines.
buycycle is the leading marketplace for pre-owned bikes, and our shipping service was built to support the cycling community. Thousands of bikes are bought, sold, and shipped across the country every month through our platform. Whether your shipment is related to a buycycle transaction, a race, a relocation, or a holiday, our logistics network is open to everyone.
This route is priced from $109 per shipment. We offer a fixed price with no distance surcharges or hidden fees. Every shipment includes full coverage against damage and loss.
Flying with a bike box means airline surcharges, size restrictions, and the risk of damage in cargo holds. General couriers are not equipped for oversized sporting goods. Our dedicated service solves both problems: purpose-built packaging, careful handling, and door-to-door convenience at a predictable price.
Whether you are chasing Marin County, Big Sur, Mt. Tamalpais or simply moving to a new city, our service connects Missouri and California without the hassle of flying with a bike box or driving across the country.

About this route
From the Tour of California's mountain stages to Missouri's 240-mile Katy Trail, the nation's longest rail-trail along the Missouri River. Ship your bike between West Coast racing roads and heartland rail-trail cruising.
Missouri's Katy Trail is a 240-mile crushed-limestone path that follows the former Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad corridor along the Missouri River from near St. Louis to Clinton. The trail passes through river bluffs, wine country around Hermann, and small towns that cater to touring cyclists with trailside lodging and local restaurants. Beyond the Katy Trail, the Ozark Mountains in southern Missouri provide surprisingly challenging road and gravel riding with steep, winding climbs through dense hardwood forest. The Berryman Trail near Potosi offers 24 miles of rugged singletrack through the Mark Twain National Forest. California riders will find Missouri's combination of a world-class rail-trail and Ozark hill country creates a riding experience far richer than the state's plains reputation might suggest.
The distance from California to Missouri is roughly 1,800 miles, crossing desert and plains landscapes. Every bike is packed securely with frame protection, wheel separators, and padding around derailleurs and brake components to ensure safe arrival. Full coverage is included on all shipments, whether you are sending a touring bike for the Katy Trail or a mountain bike for Ozark singletrack. Real-time tracking updates keep you informed throughout the journey from California to the Show-Me State.
