The bike was with great care  professionally  packed into a personal container and shipped over to the US together with all my other possessions  when I emigrated from the UK in 2010. This fabulous machine has been cosseted all of its life. I bought it from a semi professional British cyclist who was the first owner, who tragically sustained a serious permanent leg injury in a motoring accident. His Aire Valley Race Team logo is still on the rear forks. This is a very reluctant sale of an iconic model road bike. Please note. I have seriously considered this in great depth…..Sorry, I am not prepared to ship the bike. The extremely high possibility  of damage that I have constantly observed in bike shipping reviews, is not a risk that I am prepared to take. However the buyer is very welcome to arrange for their own trusted freight transporter, which has always worked with other sales. When I purchased it, to also eliminate shipping, I traveled  to Bradford City, Yorkshire UK  The journey was distance of around a 700 mile round trip using a friend’s 2003 Peugeot 205 hatchback. which is a very small vehicle. The bike fitted very easily through the hatchback, passenger seats flat, with just the front wheel removed. If you have any questions or need more photos,just get in touch. Thanks for looking. David
