The event will be held at the parking lot of Metro Pedal Power and in conjunction with Electric City Cyles in Somerville MA at:
11 Olive Sq Somerville MA.[Union Sq area]
Hopefully we will not have to many people drawn away to the Cyclo-Cross race in Gloucester!
The weather is looking good, so a good day for the meet. I will have a lots of components that I need to move on and several bikes that I would like to find homes for:
New saddle bags, WALD big mesh baskets, Mavic front hubs, Pauls disc front hub, Level rear fixed/free mtn hub and many other parts new and used.
I have 2 Schwinn 5 speed diamond frame Suburbans with new tires, brake pads, chain and cables. WALD rear baskets on both $60.00 each
I have a 80s Schwinn 62cm road bike. New powder red metallic coat, cables, apds, tires, chainrings. $120.00
Maybe some other various ANT bikes at great deals.
Hope to see you there.
Last years I got a wheel for 9 bucks, it was pretty rad.
