In fact you just can't do it (as of this August anyway).
There are NO Magadan international flights to or from anywhere for bikes OR people.
The over zealous/greedy Customs Unit at Magadan airport did much to bring about the airfirms stopping flying internationally - even on an 'ad hoc' basis.
Typically of Russian burocracy, the Customs Unit is still there and manned all the time, even though aparently there has not been a commercial international flight, in or out, for at least two years!
Every bike we are aware of this year reaching Magadan came/went by road or sea.
