Some moderator will tell you it must go into the For Sale section where you have to be a paying member to post stuff.

Yeah, okay, that sounds about right. Me too. I only have 4, but I often ride three in a day.
I don't think that's hoarding, but then 4 is all I'm allowed if I am to remain married. She thinks
I love my bikes more than her. I think it's a toss up.

I donate my used bike stuff, my old parts after I upgrade to a bike Co-op.
All that work and BS (Haggling with an Old fart Is no fun) to get pennies on the dollar for old gear,,no thanks.

Last time I sold a complete bike I let my Local bike shop do it. Was well worth paying them 30%

This old fart In training would rather be riding..
