Bus & Bike Transport

You will ride in comfort on your trip across the state on air-conditioned charter buses. A bus host will be there to answer your questions.

We use a professional moving company to transport bikes. Bikes do not require any disassembly and are protected with heavy packing blankets.

There are two options with our Bus & Bike transportation.

Option 2: BUS/BIKE TRANSPORTATION: $210

Transportation only from Dubuque to Onawa on July 18, 2026 only. Easy access to main campground in Onawa from our drop point.

Still my go-to choice for transportation to the start of RAGBRAI. Thank you!

You guys rock! Nothing missed, nothing to add. You are dialed in. Thank you for your hard work to
make our RAGBRAI so enjoyable and worry-free!

Was my first time with Brancel Bicycle Charters – I love everyone who works with/for you guys, they were all fantastic! Always very friendly and helpful.

I found that the great reputation of Brancel is well deserved. The service Brancel’s team provided was top notch.

LOVE to have the canopies, chairs and cold drinks at the end of the day – makes such a difference after a hot days ride. The information and recharge board are GREAT too! – plus newspapers!
