Getting a bike to London

Posted on
  • Hey folks!

    I bought myself a nice and used 90's road bike on eBay in your lovely City (M46 area) for some warm workshop hours and decent winter training . Now I am searching a way to get it to London.

    The Problem is that the seller cannot get a bike box from a local bike shop. So the bike is unboxed. I searched for some pickup couriers, but it seems to be quite expensive to do that (50-70£) That almost the money I paid for the whole ride. :/ I considered taking the train but tickets in the upcoming time as not less expensive as a courier.

    Is anybody from Manchester coming to London in the recent time and could do me the favor of delivering it to here? It could even compensate for it a bit (but just not 50£) and buy some drinks on top.

    You would do me a huge favor!

    Thanks !
