STOP-PRESS: it looks like we still haven't managed to procure a container, so the shipping-party will have to be postponed? We (Lee) have finally scheduled a shipping party to load bikes into a container bound for Angola on Saturday, May 10th. Due to the weak dollar and increased fuel costs shipping to Angola is much more expensive than before, so the need to pack 500 adult bikes into the container to increase the value of it's contents is even greater! | ||
