Hello there.

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, and i've also looked elsewhere but i'm useless ad trapsing through forums.

I'm bidding on a bike which is 300mile away Neutral yes i know sounds silly but does anyone know of any trusty bike courier services?

Regards

Got AA or RAC?

1) Go to pick up the bike.
2) take the spark plug out
3) Ring MR AA/RAC
4) say "I have broken down, be darlings and take me home please" Smile



PS. Not sure if this will REALLY work, but it could do.

Otherwise a car recovery service should do bikes. Or hire a man and a van.

I used a place called Alpha Couriers, they were the best on price and really flexible on collection / delivery times. Would recommend them to anyone, but for that sort of distance it might be a bit pricey.

But in the case of recovery you still need to be there when they pick it up and you'd still need to go back with it. I don't see how that'd be easier than just say riding it home?
