unusual question but hoping miracles are happening around!
i've just bought bike on Ebay (as impulse) and didn't noticed (using mobile phone) that its collection only, although seller is able to deliver within Glasgow, is there anyone for whom it wasn't be a huge hustle to meet a guy and then box the bike for me? and i would send a courier to pick it up...
think perfectly someone that works in bike shop so tools for simple reassembling, suitable box and being on site when courier arrives wouldn't disturb life too much...its kinda single speed bike so really easy to put apart for boxing, can send some money if necessary for materials like duck tape...or for couple of pints!
what you say?

Hey!

I wouldn't be confident enough to do it myself, never having boxed my own bike before never mind anyone else's, but the Glasgow forum is a friendly place full of folk more experienced by me.

Someone will sort you out: http://www.glasgowfixedgear.com/

its quite cheap bike so it doesn't have to be very well packed, simple wrap in box...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
