Inconsistent Weather May Mean Shipping Motorcycles, Instead of Driving

LOS ANGELES - March 27, 2014 - PRLog -- With bright sunny skies shining on much of the country, it’s understood that motorcycles will be hitting the road. Many localities have issued motorcycle awareness statements, and clubs are organizing their first events. If you’d planned to travel to such an event, but you’re still stuck in lingering winter weather, you have a choice to make: delay your first ride, take the risk of riding through chilly conditions to get to the warmer parts of the country, or have your motorcycle shipped to where you’re going, while you fly ahead.

“Motorcycle shipping definitely gives riders some peace of mind,” says Robert Goodman of Box Brothers, a California-based shipping company that provides custom crating services. “If you leave your bike in good hands, you can be sure it’s going to arrive safe wherever you’re going. There’s no danger and none of the wear-and-tear of a long ride. All you have to think about is enjoying yourself.”

For the next couple of weeks, bikers in the Northeast may find themselves choosing between getting left out in the cold and finding a company in their own area for motorcycle shipping. Los Angeles, San Francisco, Phoenix, Houston and other areas are all waiting with their famously nice springtime weather and active biker communities.

Perhaps the silver lining to all of this cold weather is that it will make some people more aware of their options for coming years. After all, motorcycle shipping isn’t just for East Coast people who can’t brave the cold or risk icy conditions. By relying on crate shipping, San Francisco motorcycle enthusiasts can join up with rallies and events across the state, or return the favor for those who made the effort to ship their bikes from places where spring came late in the year.

Fortunately, such inconsistent weather doesn’t have to ruin anyone’s enjoyment of the spring. As winter enters its final throes, motorcycle owners are urged to stay safe and stay comfortable. But that doesn’t mean your bike has to stay in storage. Just send it where the weather’s nice all your round.
