Ship a Bike from Texas to Iowa

Transport your ride from Iowa's RAGBRAI, the world's oldest and largest recreational ride, to Texas's Hill Country near Austin. Iowa's rolling gravel roads and the Austin Veloway's dedicated cycling loop connect two states that take their riding communities seriously.

Iowa and Texas represent cycling at two scales. Iowa's gravel roads through Polk and Dallas counties wind through manageable distances with a strong sense of community, where post-ride pie at a rural church is a RAGBRAI tradition. Texas answers with sheer size: the Hill Country west of Austin delivers hundreds of miles of rolling ranch roads past wildflower meadows and spring-fed rivers, Big Bend National Park's remote desert roads challenge with heat and isolation, and the Palo Duro Canyon near Amarillo offers dramatic rim rides. Austin's veloway, a 3.1-mile paved loop closed to motor vehicles, and the city's growing bike lane network reflect a committed cycling culture. For Iowa riders seeking winter warmth, Texas provides months of rideable weather when the Midwest is frozen.

A shipment from Iowa to Texas spans roughly 900 miles through Kansas and Oklahoma into the southern plains. Each bicycle is boxed to protect derailleurs, brake calipers, and frame paint from the demands of long-distance handling. Full coverage accompanies every shipment, whether you are relocating a gravel bike for Hill Country exploration or a road racer for Austin's group rides. Tracking updates follow your bike from Iowa's heartland to the Lone Star State.
