The route
The truck takes I-85 southwest from Petersburg through Charlotte to Atlanta, then I-20 west through Birmingham, Jackson, and Shreveport into Dallas. It is a long run through the Deep South, and the bike stays strapped in a closed trailer the whole way.
Seasonal notes
Spring and fall are the most comfortable riding seasons in North Texas. Summer heat regularly passes 100 degrees, which makes riding the bike out yourself a hard trip. Relocations peak in summer, so book ahead.
Arriving in Dallas
DFW deliveries include Dallas neighborhoods such as Uptown and Lakewood, and suburbs like Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Arlington, and Fort Worth. Texas Motor Speedway is north of Fort Worth. Newer suburbs usually have plenty of room for a truck.
