Why we started Ready2Race Bike Transport

My first experience with bike transport was in 2021.  It did not go well. 

In 2021, I used a popular bike transport service for my first 70.3 race.  My bike arrived with a bent derailleur.  My chain popped.  I fell on a hill.  I finished but it wasn't the race I imagined.   I remember thinking at the time:  "There has to be a better way"

A few years later, after spending some time away from the sport to raise young kids, I decided to get back into triathlon.  As I looked into bike transport options again, I was surprised to find many of the same challenges still existed.

With 15 years of experience designing and optimizing supply chains for Fortune 500 companies, I felt there had to be a better way.  

We founded our business based on on six key principles:
 

• Maintain sufficient cash reserves to fully fund logistics in advance

• Engineer a purpose-built racking system that will protect the bike during transit

• Build repeatable loading and handling procedures to reduce human error

• Create conservative transport schedules with an operational buffer

• Support athletes with on-site mechanical assistance, where possible

• Fully insure every bike we transport

We know athletes place enormous trust in us when they hand over their bike. We take that responsibility seriously.

Our goal is simple: deliver your bike fully assembled, ready2race, and worry-free.
