I will keep this offer in mind! (And see if I can swap you something you would like. Do you eat cake, for example?) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17930#post-255235 Mon, 17 Jul 2017 09:27:59 +0000 Arellcat 255235@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I could lend you mine, unhurt. I'm not using it much at the moment. I have my special rack that lets you put panniers on the front. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17930#post-255222 Sun, 16 Jul 2017 22:53:15 +0000 unhurt 255222@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks all. Seems possible BikeTrax also hire out acoutrements... Sally - that's very kind, but suspect the Edinburgh-Dumfries aspect will make it very inconvenient for you! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17930#post-255099 Fri, 14 Jul 2017 17:27:34 +0000 sallyhinch 255099@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I could potentially lend you mine if we can co-ordinate and I'm not going to need it. It won't take panniers but the folding basket in the front takes my overnight bag fairly handily.</p> <p>Alternatively, look and see if there's a Brompton Dock in the area you're going to </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17930#post-255093 Fri, 14 Jul 2017 15:00:42 +0000 Roibeard 255093@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Actually, just spotted the small panniers requirement - Bromptons don't take ordinary panniers without a third-party adapter...</p> <p>Robert </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17930#post-255092 Fri, 14 Jul 2017 14:56:22 +0000 Roibeard 255092@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="https://www.biketrax.co.uk/info/bike_hire.php">Bike Trax</a> will do a hire.</p> <p>Robert </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17930#post-255091 Fri, 14 Jul 2017 14:47:24 +0000 unhurt 255091@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Or indeed, hire. Suggestions sought!</p> <p>Got a trip to Telford area for work in October and probably don't want the hassle of taking the usual bike on &amp; off trains en route, but would be very handy to be able to pedal the five or so miles between station, venue and - probably - miles between B&amp;B and venue. I haven't quite got to the folder-buying place (yet!) but was wondering about renting/borrowing one that would take my small panniers, thus both solving my transport frustration and having a proper shot at travel with tiny wheels. </p> <p>Is hire possible given I'd be taking it away for a few days, or would someone be willing to load (could perhaps leave my much-loved Surly for security or loan the Longitude in return...) </p>
