This year’s Bike Swap was another awesome event. Organized and staffed by friendly, knowledgeable people, this year’s Swap went off without a hitch.

Thousands of affordable bikes were available to folks hoping to get a deal. And get a deal they did! We saw lots of bike go by our booth for $20-50. We also saw some beautiful bikes hanging in the corral: bikes by Ibis, Litespeed, Rodrigues, to name a few.

Because the swap is such a family-friendly event (kids under 12 get in for free and receive a helmet with the purchase of a bike), we enlisted the help of Maddie. She donated her time and made approximately 60 balloon creations for kids at the swap. Parents and grandparents generously donated to the cause, and Maddie generously donated half her proceeds to Pedals2People. Thanks for the support!

If you missed the swap, don’t worry. We have plenty of affordable bikes at our shop. Come by and take one for a test ride. Before you know it, it’ll be May and Bike-to-Work month. You’ll want to be ready…
