If it's rideable

Organise a relay...should be feasible. Each person takes it circa 50 miles and hands it on to the next.

I would have gone along with Bills idea cept for the fiasco of trying to get Mo's little car up from Petes place to mine last year !

Ok, here is a little sneaky that we sometimes pulled when I was dispatching..

Get your brother to go to his nearest roadside cafe type thing.. the one where most lorrys stop..

Tell him to ask about to see if anyone in a box wagon with a tail lift is heading your way ( it dont have to be spot on there but close enough sort of thing )

Drop the friver a score and load on the bike .. You collect at tother end..

my mate got his bike moved up to his new home in scotland when he was posted by his recovery,:t

A slight adjustement and the bike wouldnt run, hey presto, bike delivered 2 days later, right after the removals van left

Not that i agree with such actions of course R#?

Take out membership to the cheapest breakdown service that offers to take you to your destination ?

Then push the bike a mile or 2 etc and then ring up for assistance ??

Bingo :yo:

and if you get sussed which any switched on patrol with my firm will it's veiwed as fraudulant use and they'll cancel the membership
better to use one that uses local gareges to come out they're mostly thick as shit so you stand a better chance of getting away with it
