I don't call myself a bike flipper. Instead, I say that I collect and restore old bikes, and I sell some of them.
My home is so stuffed and overflowing with bikes that I might soon qualify to be on the Hoarders show.
I worked and paid my way through college as a bike mechanic, so I have skills good enough to say that when I sell a bike, it's in perfect running order. I'm not so good at making them pretty, though. Gotta work on that.
