We managed to stuff 505 bikes (a mix of road & mountain and smaller 20" wheeled bikes) into the container, along with extra wheels & tyres and lots of other spare parts.
335 used adult bicycles with their front wheels removed, 170 used children's bicycles, 7 boxes of used parts, 4 bags of patched inner tubes, 57 used tires & 63 extra used wheels (of the 335 adult bikes, 115 are road bikes and 220 are mountain bikes).
About 100 children's bikes were shared with members of the neighbourhood at low cost, on Saturday Dewcember 11th.
STOP-PRESS: we will, indeed, hold the bike sale once again this coming Saturday!
And we passed on about 100 more children's bikes ...
We will be holding a sale of gently-used refurbished bikes suitable for children 2 to 7 years old at Working Bikes, 2434 S. Western Avenue. These bikes will be sold for $5 each.
Larger bikes suitable for older children also available at normal (low) prices.
