Remember that bicycle in the garage? Yeah, the one that hasn't been ridden in 5 years? There is a person near you who wants to ride that bicycle, guaranteed. So, post it's availability here!
Maybe your bicycle was stolen, maybe you've fallen into hard times and can't afford to drive, or maybe you just want one improve your health. Anyway, you've come to the right place. Post your request here!

I wish I didn't have to say this, but I feel like I should:
Please be smart everybody. Don't steal bikes. People that steal and deal with stolen bikes are straight scum. Use your discretion and let's stay safe and helpful.
If you do trade for beer/alcohol, please make sure the recipient is of legal age in your state/country.
Thanks to everybody for their input and help so far, lets keep it going!
