Hey folks, I'm relatively new to the club so let me know if this isn't appropriate and I'll delete the post.
I live in Southcentral Ontario and I'm planning a 10 day trip out to Colorado later this summer. Given the cost of rental bikes I'm interested in taking my bike with me, but not as interested in the 22 hour ride or drive to get there, especially given my limited time. So I've decided I'm going to fly.
I'm looking into shipping my bike, but hope to avoid the extra customs and border expense and hassle. So it occurred to me that if I could drop my bike off on the US side of the border, it could be picked up and dropped off there by the shipping company much more simply at at less expense.
I'm posting to this to see if there are any fellow BMW MOA members in the Lewiston / Niagara Falls / Buffalo area who would be willing to help out by storing the bike until the shipping company picks it up and after they drop it off until I can retrieve it. I'd certainly be willing to make it worth your while.
Alternately can you recommend a business in the area who would do this for a reasonable fee?
Thanks!
