Hey peoples,

I'm looking for a transport company or perhaps someone traveling to Canberra to deliver a motorbike. The bike I suppose is a small/medium size weighing just over 100kg.(Honda SL230)

So, if you know of any transport mobs doing Ballarat to Canberra runs then please let me know. I haven't done the ring around yet as I thought I would post here first.

If it ends up to expensive to courier it then I will probably drive and make a weekend out of it but time is a bit scarce ATM.

Anyway, hope to find someone soon.

Cheers

Yes... I have the problem that I am now home more on house and kid duties and Mags in back in the office fulltime so I cant sneak off....

If you need a hand with the bike just yell out... I can pick it up and bring it to the border or close to for a few dollars for petrol as I can do that in the day..

Or keep looking for your bike in Vic and come down and grab the 2 of 3 with the kids bikes at the same time mate. Your chasing 4 bikes, cuppa ain't going anywhere, unless you need it right now have a bit of a look for the others and grab then all at once.

Hi Kris,

Just checked with the brother in law as his business is always sending stuff interstate.
He recommended Quicks Freight Express http://www.quicksfreightexpress.com.au/ (03) 5334 5325 if they can't do it they may be able to recommend someone.

I think the best option is you drive down and pick it.

I use to send bikes all over the country and mainly used freight companies as they were so much cheaper and never had a bike arrived damaged...

Yeah thanks mate. This is the same mob Cuppa recommended.

Just rang and got a quote for $180. I thinks that's is very reasnable.

I worked out @ around 1500km there and back towing a trailer would cost me around $300-$350
