add to this a scary number of plain 531 Raleigh's and dozens and dozens of olde Schwinns of all types from middle weights and Sting & Manta Rays to tandems to unicycles including a Town and Country Triple, rod brake bikes, folders and of course the forgotten, hidden, lost and lent out bikes......

Just good-clean fun!!! I'm rebuilding ( not me...my soon to be rich contractor) my house down to the studs and adding a 2nd floor so, sadly, well less than half of the bicycles will be making the return trip. Stay tuned for the big sale....
