2596Probably? Livestock is a different kettle of fish.. And fish not being as common as sheep or pig transportation is a specialist thing.
Another one I can think of is specialist cakes... Yep cakes on a bike.. Now Ive never tried it and dont really intend to, but have been asked out of urgency and I declined, as the end result would not have been good I would Imagine.
