    Trying to get a bike shipped out to France. Can’t get a quote for less than £200. Was £50 last time!

    Any suggestions?

    Or, if anyone fancies picking up a bike for me from Yorkshire’s finest purveyors of citrus-fruit related, non office-furniture inspired bicycles and driving it out here in exchange for some kind of holiday deal, we could talk…

    I can recommend these guys to try for a shipping quote.

    Hi Neal,

    Ideally before 9th June and coming to Sainte Foy (near Les Arcs / Bourg Saint Maurice).

    In coming over but won’t be there till 11th.

    And heading for Meribel rather than St Foy.

    But if the 11th is close enough, and you can collect from Meribel………..

    I can collect it and make room in the van for some fuel money

    I got a bike shipped to Spain for 39 quid with http://www.parcel2go.co.uk

    Cheers all – I did try Parcel2Go, but their site won’t give me a quote. I will try calling them.

    Neal – that might work for me, I can cope with riding another bike for the first few days of the season! Will be in touch if I can’t get courier sorted.

    No worries, will it be Built or Boxed ?

    Would be better if it was built really (or at least not boxed) as I can get it in the van a lot easier with the other two then (very carefully obviously!)
