Not everyone is there for the bikes mind you, but many of them were. Of the 75+ bikes they had, 65 were snatched up in the first 15 minutes. By the time we got in the really good stuff was gone, we did manage to get 6 bikes though.....A nice womans Peugeot, a Schwinn Super Sport, a womans 87 Schwinn Traveller, a Raleigh Sprite 27, a Bottecchia mixte and a Hercules road bike missing a front wheel. When the guy checked me out he added up the prices on Peugeot, SS and the Traveller and the other 3 he said free, free, free.....here's pics of the Super Sport and the Sprite.
I imagine this is the sale held in Naperville every year.You got some nice bikes considering that many were gone by the time you got in.
