South West London Bike Rental

Hello all

Does anyone have a bike that is around 650cc or more, good for a short week-long french jaunt, preferably with panniers if possible. Additional bike needed, rider is 50 and has riden bikes all his life - very sensible. We would take care of covering additional rider on your insurance and would naturally be happy to pay a rental fee. South West London best - less inconvenience with pick up and drop off.

Thanks!!

Jupiter

Hey guys - sorry for not getting back to you! Keith - we did end up hiring from about town, and it all worked out well - thanks for that.

Pity its always so damn expensive!

Hey Big Yella - how you doing, long time no speak, how are those country lanes holding up?

France was lovely and I swapped bikes with Mark to try out the Beamer he had hired - very smooth - but far to responsive for me - what with being used to my trusty XT thumper :-)

Thanks for the help guys
