I am a bicycle flipper and proud to be one.
I salvage bicycles that might, otherwise, end up in a landfill site, adding more waste to a near wasted Mother Earth. I also manage to offer a service and a product that other people seek. I try to be honest, in my dealings, and make an effort to offer more than is expected or agreed upon.
And I am proud of what I do. I get my hands on some pretty neat bicycles. Meet some pretty interesting people. Manage and publish a website designed to help others interested in vintage bicycles, and...
Through my bike flipping interests, managed to become a member of Bicycles for Humanity.
What's wrong with being a flipper. Did I mention I am proud of what I do.
