    www.highlandrider.com Based in sunny Linlithgow, Central Scotland and good guys. Reasonably handy for Edinburgh airport too. Try www.easyjet.com for a cheap connection from Heathrow.

    There's also some dudes in Southampton that hire out motorsickles. You're probably making the mistake of going to Google which then detects your PC is in kiwiland. Try www.google.co.uk

    Alternatively, try ebay.co.uk or biketrader.co.uk and just buy a bike (much cheaper than over here) and sell it before ya go home.

    Yer main hassle will be insurance, especially as everyone knows how poor the standard of driving is in kiwiland.

    Seriously though, if you can arrange your own insurance then loads of companies will hire out bikes to you. I was with ebikeinsurance.co.uk and they do pay as you go inswearance.

    Good luck and you'll need $hitloads of money (petrol is 3 NZD per litre) and accommodation is a rip-off.
