Just gotta look around. Heck,a friend of mine once picked up a completely haggard bike for $25 at a yard sale because it had a decent Brooks on it. Pulled the saddle off and gave the rest to some friends to make a freak bike.
I wonder if anything like that hapens locally. Hmmm.

Yard sales. I've never seen a bike at one. Mostly grandma's old glass knick-knacks and dated clothing. We scoured the local flea market for bikes before buying the fiance's bike. No luck. Ah well, so it goes.

I wouldn't mind vintage as long as it was useable and sized right.
