Transportation Services

  We are pleased to offer transportation service options for you, your bike, and your baggage from the ending town to the starting town both before the start and after the end of both events.

  • Click Here for more information about transportation staging points.

There will not be any mid-route stops as part of any transportation service.

Transportation of People
At this time, we do not anticipate having enough participants to justify hiring a charter bus for any transportation service. Therefore participants and their baggage will primarily be transported aboard existing busses and trains (Amtrak, Greyhound, MegaBus, etc.) serving the stopping towns except where otherwise noted.

In addition, because no bus or train schedule departs the ending town after 8:30 pm (the route closing time) the day of the ride, all transportation services after the end of event will depart the day after the ride and not immediately after the end of the ride that day. You will need to secure lodging in the ending town the night of the ride, possibly at the supported hotel.

Bicycle Transportation
All transportation services include transportation for your bicycle because no bus or train also allows passengers to carry an unboxed, fully assembled bicycle aboard except for a limited number of Amtrak trains.

Because our vehicles will arrive before all busses and trains your bicycle will be ready to pick up immediately after you arrive.

Baggage Transportation
When participants travel aboard a bus or train, they will carry their baggage with them - we will not transport it on a separate vehicle. When participants travel aboard our vehicles we will transport their baggage ourselves.
