Not yet, and I would get served divorce papers for sure.

Not the back yard but most other hidey holes, attic, basement, trailer, sheds, etc. :twitchy:

I doubt there were any valuable bikes in that pile. That shed was at the back of a shop that stood for some 40 years and it looks like they never discarded anything. The pic was taken about 10 years ago, they have closed since. Probably all that was sold by weight as metal scrap.

So this is a bike shop and they threw all the bikes that were too cheap or in too bad of condition to sell in that shed and left them there? I thought this was just one guy he kept hoarding bikes.

Can anyone id this bike.

.....and the sin of it is that each of those bikes was someone's shiny dream in the beginning.

There's a guy at the other end of the city from me who has an outdoor pile about half the size of that warehouse pic. They are mostly modernish low end bikes. Someone scoped it out
from the road and let me know about it, thinking that I might find some "resurrection" candidates there. Turns out the guy has rented space from a smallish vehicle wrecker and
sends containers of bikes to west African countries. I asked him does he fix them up first ? Nope, just stuffs the container full of bikes. He says those people over there are very
ingenious when it comes to repairs, especially tire/tubes. Apparently those countries over there have lots of insanely poor people who are desparate for any form of wheeled transport
and this guy is helping get them on wheels.

(raises hand) I had one of those years ago... :)

The recycling area at my local co op. These are the bikes considered too valuable to recycle and they just sit there. Some have been rescued though.
