Hi and welcome to railcc!

Unfortunately, the connections between Kanfanar and Koper are not very good.

From Kanfanar, you have the following trains into Slovenia to Hrpelje-Kozina:

Kanfanar 0950 - 1107 Buzet
Buzet 1121 - 1151 Hrpelje-Kozina

Kanfanar 1512 - 1649 Buzet
Buzet 1703 - 1735 Hrpelje-Kozina

Kanfanar 1832 - 2043 Hrpelje-Kozina

From Hrpelje-Kozina the trains to Koper depart at 0805, 0809 and 1129 so you have no connection with these trains. The next train to Koper runs at 1737, then 1931.

So, you should go from Kanfanar at 1512, then change at Buzet and Hrpelje-Kozina. If you get the connection at Hrpelje-Kozina, you would arrive in Koper at 1812, if not, you would have to take the next train and arrive in Koper at 2004. According to Slovenian Railways [ux]rail.shop/sz[/ux] the connection at Hrpelje-Kozina (1735 to 1737) is not guaranteed.

Regarding your bicycle, as far as I can see, none of these trains conveys bicycles; so you would have to convey your bicycle as piece of luggage in a packing bag.

Hey,

you can get off the train at Podgorje (1 station before Hrpelje) and ride your bike down the hills to Koper (about 20 km).

Train 18.32 from Kanfanar has a wagon for bikes and luggage. The other trains won´t be crowded so I expect you can take your bike in it without any problems.

There is also a ferry line from Rovinj to Piran, but I don´´´t know if you can take your bike on the ferry:
