Bike hire in the South
Discussion
Does anybody know of a place that I can hire a bike from, preferably a Harley?
The reason for this is that a relative of mine wants to arrive at the church on their wedding day on a bike, and for ease of use a harley would fit the bill spot on.
I`ve tried Dockgate 20 as I know that they used to hire bikes out but I can`t find any details on their website with referance to bike hire.
A Harley is not the only choice, I`m welcome to other ideas, but a cruiser of some type would be better than a sportsbike for arriving in style IMO.

Not wanting to put you off, but there was a horrendous story maybe five years ago about a bride on her way to her wedding as the passenger on a trike.
Her dress got caught in the drive shaft and pulled her legs into it. She ended up losing both legs from the knee down.
Even more tragic was that she was already dying of cancer and the wedding had been brought forward.
She did eventually get married, however I have no idea if the second trip was by bike or not.
This is not a wind up; it was covered in the national press at the time.
Your friend needs to think carefully about whether travelling by bike is the wisest thing for a wedding; accidents, weather, even stray grease could really spoil things.
I'd stick with the limo.

Go to a Harley dealership and ask for a test ride, drop your mate off and take it back. Tell them its not for you and back to the church.
