Collecting a bike from the airport (UK)
The trip is over damn it and I am involved in organising shipping back to the UK from Colombia. I seem to have got things covered at the Colombian end but I am keen to know how it works when it comes to collecting my bike in London (Stanstead I think).
Do I just go to the airport and present the airway bill (or whatever the shippers give me to present). Is there anything to pay? Do I need a local agent to help sort out the release? How much time does it normally take to ship the bike and clear customs? I was planning on sending it the same day as I fly out of Bogota.
Anything I need to watch out for?
Crikey if all goes well I might even have my bike back for the UK meeting next weekend.
Thanks for any advice anyone can offer.
Matt
