Quick update for Hoedspruit – great to see that #bicyclecouriers come up tops in the google organic listing when you search for ‘bicycle shop hoedspruit’ – but sad to report after contacting all 3x bike shop options for Hoedspruit none of them have boxes: (A) IZIT does sports clothing // (B) GIANT GREER has closed down and (C) The Great Outdoors said they can box it for R500-odd but you have to bring your own box and bubble wrap (!)
