Hi All,

I just paid $218 to ship a bike from NYC to San Diego. It was a lightweight bike packed in a standard roadbike box (53" x 33" x 8"). I shipped FedEx ground. This is staggeringly expensive. Fortunately, the recipient paid. He had bought the bike from me on ebay.

But I'd like to ship a couple of my own bikes to CA where I'll be living. What is a better way?! Has anybody tried to ship via Amtrak from Penn Station? Other ideas?

Thank you,
Rob
