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

Long-distance bike delivery service 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 $97 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.

About this route

Ship from Kentucky's rolling Bourbon Trail roads to Rhode Island's Newport Ocean Drive, a scenic 10-mile coastal loop. From Lexington's horse farms to Block Island's peaceful cycling lanes, your bike travels between the bluegrass heartland and the Atlantic coastline with care.

Rhode Island may be the smallest state, but its cycling offerings are surprisingly rich. Newport's Ocean Drive hugs the coastline past Gilded Age mansions, rocky shorelines, and sweeping ocean views, making it one of the most scenic short rides on the East Coast. Block Island, accessible by ferry, is a car-light haven with rolling dirt roads and dramatic bluffs overlooking the Atlantic. The East Bay Bike Path provides a flat, paved 14.5-mile ride along Narragansett Bay. Kentucky's expansive horse country and mountain trails offer a very different scale of riding, but both states pack excellent cycling into their landscapes.

buycycle's shipping service connects these two very different cycling environments with reliability and care. Your bike is professionally packed with protective materials for every component, and full coverage is included on every shipment. Real-time tracking follows your bike from the Bluegrass State to the Ocean State, and doorstep delivery ensures you are ready to ride Newport's coastal roads or catch the ferry to Block Island without delay.
