Look Ma, No Hands!
Hello, I've located a few bikes that I want to buy from someone in New York and I live in Denver. The gentleman is not going to be able to ship them. Short of driving my own car 24 hours in either direction to get these bikes, what is the cheapest / best alternative to getting them home? I would prefer to keep the cost of the adventure as low as possible.
Options I've considered
Options I've considered
- Round trip flight from Denver to NY and ship them to myself
- One way ticket to NY and rent van to drive home - cost estimate of 1K
- One way ticket there and buy a cheap van once I get there to drive back (my personal favorite, but my wife thinks I'm crazy). Sell van back in Denver. What if van breaks down though with antique bikes in back? Not good, right?
