the bike scene in Scranton dies out over 10 years ago. I kind of stumbled upon got. I actually got a fixed gear because i wanted a good work out. Then I found the popularity around them back at the time. And I like to mod things…. So I began buying parts and doing some rides. If I did sell it, I would definitely pay it in the Allentown and Philly Craig’s list. But i still think I will only get about 300-400$ for it, and I have at least a grand into the bike. So I’ll just keep it and ride it from time to time.
im looking to get a gravel bike myself. I can take a few short cuts to work that will go through some short trials between home and work. It’s only a few miles, but the car route takes me last a school…. And it’s a left turn into the parking lot…. So traffic can be gnarly in the am. It seems like a great time to take up biking again!
