Does the "mainly bike sales" place have any that their new bikes arrived in? I've read of people using boxes that dealers bikes came in, don't know if it's worth a call. :confused:

That is a thought for sure, thanks. In the meantime though I took the plunge and ordered a bag off ebay. The reason being, after thought, I have to lug this thing around with me at Alicante and Birmingham airport, and it will fit in the back of thecars. Only thing which is a pain, is that I have to removes the wheels as well as pedals and straighten the bars.

dh is away so I can't ask him

dd1 says you go into Gata from Jávea - cross the railway - come to a junction where one turning goes up a hill - it's up the hill & 1st on the right


that probably doesn't help much does it.............
