    Hello wise folks and Happy New Year

    We're moving to France in a week but I haven't been able to find a reasonable quote to transport my Speedmaster to near Montauban despite looking for over a month. Can anyone recommend a service please? The bike is currently in Fleet, Hampshire and I'm in no rush but would like it to play in the spring sunshine of course :biggrin:

    Thanks in advance
    UF

    You could always get someone to ride it there for you.:wink: or even yet ride it there yourself either before or after you move.

    Ride and fly back in time, follow removing truck if there is one, borrow/buy trailer I suppose yer thought of all this and more but as PJT says, get a good mate to ride it. Sorry never used a courier other than help load a 750 Honda onto so called courier (was an artic, was manhandled on and a mattress thrown over it along with household stuff already in)

    A2B are also really good, they are based in Cambridge. I've used them a couple of times.

    Hi UF, is there a specific why you are not riding it down yourself? If you did then you'd have a wonderful time AND know the bike was in safe hands at all times.
