Pssst.... Wanna buy an Eddy Merckx?

Well you're too late! I delivered about 50 of them today to a place near Edinburgh.
They wouldn't even give the driver a freebie .
This was the last pallet waiting for the forklift....

It was shockingly badly stacked on the pallet; ready to collapse forwards on the first touch of the brakes.
Fortunately the driver recognised the value of the freight and strapped it in! That's the black straps that can be seen dropping from the roof. They attach onto the side of the frame of the trailer, but I had loosened them off by that stage so that the bikes could be unloaded. The recipient commented that it was good to receive the boxes in good condition as sometimes they are all over the place - and he STILL wouldn't give me a freebie .

Try asking the sender for a freebie, maybe there's loads more from where those came from

 

[Hill Wimp]

Cannot believe you didn't get a test ride, to check the quality of course

 

[PeteXXX]

Couldn't you have said it was a Metric 50 and only delivered 31?

 

[Vapin' Joe]

Fifty? Whaddya mean guvnor? I only picked up forty nine. Those tossers at the warehouse can't count.

I'd have expected a couple of straps round the whole pallet.
