Hey Kurt, just to throw in, rideshares on craigslist are sometimes an option, ive used it a couple times, just pay the peeps something , and let them know you have a bike and that you need a truck/ van situation and be flexible! Its pretty easy, only have to break down the bike minimally. Hope this helps! -Mike
