I have a bike in Leeds that i want to bring to Sweden. Is there any possibility for this?

Leeds is quite far from Cardiff, if you got the bike delivered to my secure storage in Cardiff I could bring it back.
Im based in Kristianstad, that's quite a drive for you :)

I can drive it down to cardiff, I work all over the UK and kristiansstad could be a nice roadtrip :)

If i don´t have any possibility to drive it down, how much would it cost for you to pick it up there? Do you drive down there alone and when is your next trip down?

I will PM you my number and you are welcome to call later or tomorrow morning but... if you can get the bike to cardiff over the next 2 weeks I can bring it back.
to get it from Leeds, it would cost me more in fuel than transportation firms charge.
There are lots of companies in UK that do bike transport for small amounts.

I have a bike here in my garage from my last trip that will be collected after the TT trip :)

Can you bring back parts from UK to?!

Within reason, really depends on what and the size as all extra space is taken up with Asda/Tesco shopping bags filled with Marmite :)

Im making frequent trips there so Im sure something can be worked out

Just a short note to say that I don’t have space left for bikes on this trip but I will be making another trip at the end of June…

Hey Andy... hope that the IOM is being kind to you.

Are you ok picking up the plastic wheel spats from Interpro or shall I try to get Dad to meet you somewhere?

I know you said to phone you, but if you let me know whats best for you then I'll get it arranged.

Mike.

Hello Mike,

I did call/email you to arrange something as I have been in Cardiff since Friday and off to the TT tomorrow.
but... Im back on the 10th and back to Sweden a few days later and I would be happy to bring those parts back for you.
I think I sent you my UK number, get your dad to call me and we can arrange something Im sure.
If you want an address in cardiff, I can give you one to drop the parts off while Im in the TT.

A man with good taste, I see. I'd order a bagful for myself if I lived a bit closer.
Have a good TT.

I just spoke to Dad and he is going to give you a call to touch base.

Thanks for helping out...

Hope the weather is being kind to you over there..!

Strange as there are no missed calls on my Swede mob, best use the UK number I gave as Im not carrying the Swede one with me.
I will send it again via PM for you to pass it on.

Weather is tops apart from a bit of rain last night, last race for us tomorrow as we are leaving Friday morning.

Back from UK and it was quite an full trip as I delivered a bike to UK, brought 2 bikes back and some parts for sporthoj members and brought some bikes back for myself - watch the for sale section soon if you are looking for a 675, Str or a nice cheap track bike :tummenupp

While at the TT I met up with a few friends along with another sporthoj member whose bike I brought back on my last trip – pleasure to meet you mate

Mike, your parts are with me and we just need to sort out the logistics of getting them to you…

I'm off to UK again in a few weeks time
