Shipping Bike to France
You've convinced me I can get one at a reasonable price in Perpy which will
be a lot less hassle than taking one on trains and underground (not to
mention Ryanair)
cheers

Cure for sore Butt?
I already have 2 bikes and I mainly use a mountain bike - 95% on road, but
like to occasionally use the bridleways. Never heard of a recumbent Mountain
Bike is the such a thing?

Calling all Hull cyclists
Anyone know of a cycle shop in Hull that's reasonably near the HRI or the
station that would be able to measure me for a saddle?? (arriving my train
for a hospital appointment).

Shipping Bike to France
Has anyone shipped a bike to France and if so can you recommend any
companies? How much did it cost?
I have £206 from TNT which is twice the cost of the bike.

shop when you hate cities and live in the wilds, but will give it a go.
