For a friend, he has  a bike in Riverside, CA that  needs to come to Iowa.  

Next week or so. And anywhere near by would work. On wheels.  

Thanks!!

Your username is Truckdriver, so....    😁

My company has clients who often use these guys: https://www.motoshippers.com/
A big deal right now is to make damn sure the company you use can ID the driver with your or your pickup agent (buddy). You'll avoid a pickup scam that way (driver finds out about the freight, "picks up" the bike and disappears).

Motoshippers is legit.  Tim and his team do great work you can count on. 

Used them for road race bikes numerous times.

Thanks! And I'm an old team driver. Plus I've driven truck for 49 years! I just retired in August. 

But I will pass the info on.

Make sure that you've got a bunch of photographs of the bike before it gets picked up.  And photos when it gets delivered.

And make sure it's insured.

I raced Supermoto with Tim in 2013... Dude is a super good guy.
