Well I guess the jig is up - Gotta come clean - I'm a flipper!

I only flip old road bikes. I have had fun foraging and wrenching on them, which has benefited my customers: They get a bike that is truly 100% , at a fair price.

It has benefited me also, because in so-doing, I've acquired a lot of keepers - essentially for free!

Unfortunately though, the market has collapsed here, and now I'm refraining from buying, because I can't STORE everything waiting for it to sell, and I can't see turning this hobby into a money pit .
Hopefully, things will recover here next season.
