Any hubbers in Manchester, UK?

[T-Bob]

Wondering if there are any of our bretherin over in Manchester that could help me out. I need to get a frame collected and sent to my brothers place down in London. Ideally what I need is someone to collect it from where  it is, put in a box and I'll arrange a courier to collect and sort out everything after that. 

 

I know it's a bit of an ask but I'll try to arrange a box to be delivered to you / the guy who has my frame to make it a bit easier. I'm a little stuck as my brother is overseas for 3 weeks and I need to get the frame picked up before next weekend. 

 

Thought it was worth a punt!

I might be there is 10-11 May for a conference.

If you don't come right before then, let me know.

 

Cant guarantee that I can help, but will try my best.

Do not go near Picadilly Gardens in town. Heard it's quite a mess with Spice addicts lolling around.

Thanks for that. I'll PM you later and see how much of a hassle it'd be if I can arrange anything else. 

 

Cheers all!

Why not just use a bike courier directly?  I've done this in the past getting bikes to London from other parts of the UK - super easy.
They collect the bike in their van bring it to you.  Sometimes takes a few days depending on their movements around the country, but I was always kept informed of movements and ETA.

I honestly never knew about this. That is a gold idea! Do you have deets for anyone in particular? That would literally solve everything and cause no hassle.

As far as I remember it was a company called "The Bike Mover"  but that's from memory as it was years ago.

Thanks I found some guys who will do it and problem solved. Cheaper than the petrol to get there an back as well. Schweet. Cheers for the lightbulb moment.
