We went out yard-saling on bikes today. I put all 4 panniers on my commuter bike in case we found something good. The first yard sale was a few miles out of town. It was in an affluent area and mentioned bikes, so we thought they might have some cool stuff. It was a bust when we got there, just junk.

So we rode back into town, hit another yard sale and stopped by the library to pick up a book that was on hold. Had lunch at subway (split a sub, and a coke, that we have occasionally, tasted good after riding all over town). Went to another yard sale and then stopped by REI. We didn't buy anything at the yard sales, so we just had a fun bike ride all over town.

Did some grocery shopping at the end and I filled all my panniers.

We still prowl the yard sales as we have hit some in the past that had some great bike stuff, like the $25 pair of new Sidis (!). (Sold them on for $75)

We are going to run back down to the library, as I need to pick up another book that was on hold.

Every day that I don't start the car is a little victory.
