Sorry if this is not the right area.

Suggestions please as to a good way to get a £200 bike moved from Doncaster to Oxford. Probably not going to get the thing packaged by the sender either.

Can't drive at the moment as have a numb leg BUT do have some Opiate based pain killers so not all bad news :)

    2 3/4 hours by train each way? Direct no changes. You good for some walking/carrying?

    i like the idea...but no, walking isn't great. tend to go round in circles and fall over randomly. entertaining, but not effective.

    There's some logic in what you say there.

    Damn these codeine tablets are wacky. brain doesn't work.
