Annual Bike Swap Returns

Traverse Area Recreation and Transportation (TART) Trails has announced the return of the Annual Recycle-A-Bicycle Bike Swap this Saturday, June 5. The Bike Swap is for anyone who wants to sell and/or purchase unused or outgrown bicycles or bike accessories. Accessories include bike trailers, hitches, bike racks, frames and wheels. The sale requires that all bicycles be in rideable condition. The tires must hold air and the brakes and shifters must be in working condition. Small items like shoes, helmets, and clothing are not accepted.

Those wishing to sell bikes can drop them off and check them in at the Old Town Parking Deck on Friday from 6-8pm. Items should be priced to sell. The organization benefits by receiving 25 percent of the sale price. Sellers may return to the parking deck between 2pm-4pm to pick up their check and/or unsold bikes.

The Bike Swap sale will be open 9am-2pm for the public to test ride and purchase bicycles. More details here.
