it gets really uncomfortable after a while sitting on the bike seat - definitely reccomend going with a 2 seater - preferably with big comfy seats

Cheapest is probably the interstate buses, they usually carry cargo as well.

I think that needs to go back in the oven, it's only half baked.

Yeah, I'm finding that the buses do an ok price.

Have also discovered that bikes need to be flatpacked

Anyone know a bike shop I can get a used box from?

If your local bike shop cant help you, as a last resort- try K Mart or Big W- they sell bikes, and often assemble them, so if you time it right you might be able to score a bikebox.

Good advice, I just got off the phone to the local bike shop, they're happy to get rid of a box or two; asked me how many I need
