    Just joined the forum. I'm currently living in Wisconsin. I'll be heading back to Texas after 21 years in the frozen North country. I can't wait to be able to ride COMFORTABLY for more than a couple of months.
    I'm probably shipping my bike to Texas. Any comments on who to contact? Any experience shipping and storing a bike long distance?
    I would appreciate the information.

    Doug,

    We moved to WA, then back to AZ just recently.  We had the moving company that moved our furniture arrange it for us (Mayflower).  They contracted a vehicle transport company and got a better price then we could have gotten.  If you are using a mover, maybe check with then, see if they have a relationship with someone.

    Thanks for the information. I'll check into that. I'm contacting a moving company tomorrow. I'm thinking of setting up my stuff in a POD. We have a one bedroom apartment and I plan on throwing lots of useless stuff away and giving away to charity and friends. I have a contact for a shipper. Thanks for your support and input. I'm certainly like this forum. It's active.

    Dougvtx, check with the local HOG chapter in your area. I heard they are hooked up with a company that specializes in motorcycles. Just get hold of any Harley dealer, they will hook you up with HOG.
