Bike Transport

By bringing your bike to the race, you are sure to ride a bike in the right size, with the components that you prefer and in the condition that you as the owner maintain your beloved bike.

The lowest budget (free) option for a bike carton is visiting your local bike shop and picking up a carton box from a bike sale they’ve just made. Most bike shops just throw out the cardboard cartons and are happy for you to reduce their trash.

American Airlines and Delta now do not charge oversize fees for bikes, making it more affordable than ever to fly with your bike.

Bike Shipping

Luggage Free is providing you the option to send your bike ahead to your hotel, to Unlimited Biking, or to one of GFNY’s partner bike shops. Be sure to confirm and book the assembly and packing service with Unlimited Biking or the bike shop prior to shipping your bike - many bike shops are very busy during GFNY race week. You can also ship your luggage ahead. Book your luggage and bike shipping here: luggagefree.com/partners/gfny

Note that we do not recommend shipping your bike internationally. When shipping the bike internationally, you run the risk of the bike getting stuck in customs and potentially not arriving to the race in time. Instead, we recommend flying with your bike.

Bike Concierge

Unlimited Biking also offers Bike Concierge service. UB’s expert team will assemble and tune up your bike, so all you have to do is show up and race.

Partner Bike Shops

In case you need any assistance or products during race week, stop by GFNY’s official partner bike shops. If you’d like a bike shop to receive your shipped bike and assemble it for you, contact the bike shop in advance to notify them of the shipment and check their pricing and availability. Support the Local Bike Shop that supports you!

NOTE: GFNY week gets very busy, and even though there are dozens of bike shops in the NYC-NJ-NY area, we recommend calling your preferred shop and booking an appointment for your bike service before & after GFNY.
