Brompton Folding Bike on Tubes

"Steve Fitzgerald" ] wrote in message ... In message , Kat writes The Train Operator would be well within his/her rights (outside the specified times and on wrong sections of the line) to ask you to leave the train. And frequently do - In fact I did today :-) I never do with a Brompton though as they are specifically allowed. I once allowed someone down onto the platform with an unfolded Brompton because he assured me he could fold it before an incoming train had opened its doors; and he could too! They are quite amazing bikes but pretty pricey I think... Yebbut worth it. Resale value is high too. I had one (gave it to my nephew when my MS stopped me riding) and have recommended them to another poster on this thread... -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |
