Someone heading to the Nats from  down here might be able to pick it up and deliver it to you at Wyaralong. I would do it except I'll have a full trailer. What kind of bike is it?
'68 Yamaha DT1 enduro, '69 Yamaha 'DT1 from Hell' '69 DT1'Dunger from Hell, '69 Cheney Yamaha 360, 70 Maico 350 (2 off), '68 Hindall Ducati 250, Hindall RT2MX, Hindall YZ250a , Cycle Factory RT2MX flat tracker, Yamaha 1T250J, Maico 250 trials, '71, Boyd and Stellings TM400, Shell OW72,750 Yamaha

No not the only one I suspect.  I have a friend travelling up from Yackandandah with 2 bikes in a 3 bike trailer.  He might be able to pick it up for you for some fuel money?

Simo would never do that would you?

Retro, where you will run into trouble with Simo's mate coming from Vic is that when he gets to Penrith he has to head west for 60 klms to pick up the bike, then come 60 klms back the way he came to Penrith and then continue north to Qld. I am just assuming this may be a bit to expect someone to do.

However if you can get the seller to bring it to my house ( Penrith ) I can store it ( i assume it is a bike ) for you and bring it to the Nats on the 2/11/2013  Total cost= One carton of Jack Daniels and Coke cans.

I think Simo will vouch for me...hehe

Very impressed to get some offers of help. That's a very kind offer Ted, thanks. I will talk to transport companies tomorrow and work out how to get it to you. It is a running (but needs TLC) RM 125 B.
