Despite the distance, we handle everything: pickup at your door, secure packaging, and delivery to any address in California within 5-7 business days.

Long-distance bicycle logistics 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 $103 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 North Dakota and California without the hassle of flying with a bike box or driving across the country.

About this route

Ship from California's endless coastal routes to North Dakota's 144-mile Maah Daah Hey Trail through the Badlands. From the PCH's ocean panoramas to the prairie's wide-open vistas, both states deliver epic riding.

North Dakota's Maah Daah Hey Trail is one of America's great singletrack secrets, running 144 miles through the rugged buttes and coulees of the western Badlands. The trail connects the north and south units of Theodore Roosevelt National Park, offering technical riding across exposed clay ridgelines, grassy meadows, and creek crossings with almost no other people in sight. The annual Maah Daah Hey 100 mountain bike race draws a dedicated field of riders willing to tackle the trail's relentless terrain in a single push. Beyond the Badlands, North Dakota's gravel roads stretch across the prairie in long, straight lines that test endurance and mental fortitude, offering a meditative experience far removed from California's crowded coastal routes.

The distance from California to North Dakota is roughly 1,500 to 1,800 miles through mountain and prairie terrain. Each bicycle is securely packed with protective materials around the frame, fork, wheels, and all mechanical components. Full coverage is included on every shipment, protecting your bike whether it is a hardtail mountain bike for the Maah Daah Hey or a gravel bike for prairie exploration. Real-time tracking keeps you informed throughout the journey from the Pacific Coast to the Northern Great Plains.
