Emmeline,
I'm not sure that a bike would be sturdy enough, but as you are
with the Dept. of Zoology, you might want to ask a pachyderm, if you
happen to have one handy, if he or she would be amenable to
transporting your harp. It should be quicker than hauling it yourself,
and I understand that they work for peanuts.
