Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

Unfortunately I think you'll be disappointed. There have been no scrap bikes at my local tip for about 3 years now. ..

I thought as much tbh.
In this country common sense is outlawed in favor of a set of regulations dreamt up by a man in a suit who has never, and will never, go anywhere near where his rules will apply.
One of my pet peeves in this country is health and safety regs, can transform me in a matter of seconds from a calm laid back guy to a ranting red faced lunatic!
Oh well, will try nonetheless, but also give any bike recycling efforts a call too.
Cheers for the advice.

The bikes at my local tip/recycling centre go to a bike charity. Usable furniture also goes to local charities.

While I admit I did like rummaging through the local skip on the first Sunday of the month. It's probably better that these things go to those in need.
