If that was within a 2 hour drive, I'd check it out.
There was a guy in Durham that had over 100 bikes. He was known for rebuilding them, then giving them away to needy kids in his area. I gave him a few bikes, a really nice guy. He got most of his bikes from the City Parks system who gave him all the abandoned bikes they found. I checked out his 100 bikes. I know it may be difficult to believe, but only 4 or 5 bikes were actually worth anything. One Schwinn Traveler, a Trek 800, a Raleigh MTB and a really nice Specialized Allez that he kept for himself (he deserved it). Just lots and lots of Walmart, K-Mart and Target bikes.
