I'll figure it out eventually, but maybe someone will have a brainwave! I have some (large) bike bits that I need to pick up from Peterborough, more than can be carried on a motorcycle (or four). I don't drive one of them four-wheeled motorbikes with the fully-enclosed seats, so I am going to have to rely on someone doing me a big, big favour. I live in West Sussex, you see, so from Peterborough, that's a fair old trip - it's a lot to ask of someone. Couriering the parts is not an option as the seller does not wish to risk it (and neither do I really). There's someone at my work who might help me out, but maybe not ... have to wait and see. The question: how would you solve this problem? One of the more entertaining ideas we had at work was to ask DSC members to pick the bits up and deliver them somewhere local to them, but gradually closer and closer to home - a DSC relay race, if you like. "The bits have reached Surrey, only another four weeks to go now I reckon!". Could be fun though ... tracking progress through the Message Board.  Anyone have a better idea? Anyone have a worse idea? Anyone have a freight hauling company? Enjoy!  | |
