My girlfriend just told me that while I was out of town, Bikes By George (on 12th Street) had a HUGE dumpster filled to the top with bikes and parts sitting outside in the street.
Did he close? What's the story? Seems like a strange thing to do with old bikes, given local organizations like Recycle-A-Bicycle, Time's Up, etc. Anybody score anything?

this is sad..
saddest of all because no one seems to have dug through the piles
