Hi, just wondering if any of you know which is the cheapest way to transport a bike from Leeds to Edinburgh? Know of any couriers that could do it?

Don't fancy riding it up lol 55mph top speed.

Thanks

Hi mate it's a Skyjet SJ125.

Do you mean you'd ride it up or deliver?

Shiply?

Never used it myself but it's a eBay style delivery website.

You list an item 'need bike going from A to B' then couriers/man in van bid their lowest price to take it from A to B for you.

Before you say 'well they'll just nick it/damage it'...you can view their feedback from previous customers and they cannot register on the website without providing written/landline confirmation of their address.

Ended up riding up on the GPZ alongside my mate. 200 miles majority of them in the dark on the A68... Thought it was never going to end! 55mph all the way Cool

Came back this morning on the GPZ, worst ride EVER. Don't know what speeds the wind was at, but I was being blown from lane to lane at some points!
