The Basement of Forgotten Bikes



Have you forgotten your faithful two-wheeler?
There are five orphaned bikes in storage in the basement: two kids bikes, a mountain bike, a cruiser and a vintage bike. If you have been missing your bike, let us know at the blog or contact management (though they will be away until June).

I am considering an auction for the unclaimed bikes with the proceeds going to the coop reserve.

    Yes, who ever you are I agree, it would be nice to clean things up down there. A mailing or sign by the mail box may be more appropriate given that not every checks the blog. I was thinking of putting a fairly decent bike down there but was concerned about security. Has anyone had and bad experiences with thievery or vandalism?

    I think the bikes are pretty safe if they are locked up in the secured storage areas. There is a fee for locking up your bike on the bike rack but I can't remember exactly what it is ($25 sounds likely . . .). I did have a bike stolen out of the basement but it was in hung high up on a rack in the hallway (since removed) but it wasn't locked so I guess it was easy pickings. I'd had it since the early eighties and it had a couple flat tires but still . . .

    Yes, one mystery solved! If you would like to reunite your daughter with her bike, contact Pamela in 2N or Ramon they will get the bike out of storage for you.

    I think the storage is more like $150! $25 would be MUCH better. Also, the red one is mine, but I like that black one better, anyone want to trade? :)

    Ahh. Another mystery solved. The black bike is pretty sweet and I have had my covetous eyes on it but, alas, it has been claimed by a recent shareholder who hasn't been around much. Contact Pam about the red bike -- I think she thinks it belongs to someone who has left the building (literally, not figuratively).
