    Hi Guys,

    I need to get my bike transported from Dublin to Northern Ireland soon. I'm looking for a professional fully insured service, rather than someone that will throw it in the back of a van with some straps.

    Any suggestions or recommendations ?

    They Deffo have vans dedicated to only bike transport. They are the most recommended bike transport company I could find. Anyone I spoke to that used transport used them.

    Oki doki, I'll drop them a mail so ;)

    Just had a dodgy company wanting a bank transfer to ship my bike, wouldn't answer the phone and wanted to keep it at a private address until next week. Some chancers out there :rolleyes:

    ride it up ?? or if one-way, ride it up and train back...........would be cheaper I'd have thought.......

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”
