My girlfriend and I are doing the bike ride, but with less than a week to go, we have no means of transport getting up there :facepalm:

Does anyone have, or know of anyone who has two spare spaces?

We are happy to pay for our seats of course.

If you could let me know asap, any help would be massively appreciated.

We always used to go up the afternoon before, and stay in the crappiest hotel ever, near the start.
I don't think you'll be able to take bikes on the train on the Sunday, itself.

Dont think many people are going to be driving UP to London from Brighton....to finish in Brighton ! Phone the BHF NOW..to see if you can get on the transport provided . Its only been up and running since November !!!
Yeah I'm fully aware it's been up and running since November. Stupidly we've left it all to the last minute as we assumed it was possible to take our bikes by train on the day. We've actually been trying to ring the useless gits all day and have left messages, but have had no luck.

Thanks for the offer, but unfortunately we will have 2 bikes with us so not sure if this would work?

As said, we used to stay up.
Carry our cycling clothes and wear light linen clothes, and flip flops.
We'd then post our clothes back to ourselves before the off.

One year I couldn't find a post box, and ended up asking a drop-er-off-er-er, to pop the envelopes in the post for us.

Imagine our surprised when we arrived home, Sunday afternoon, to find our clothes.

The random person happened to live 1/2 a mile away.

Managed to find a lift up there in the end, thanks for all of your help though.
