Auction find but what did I find?

There seems to be more old bikes than there are people who want to protect them. These bikes need you. I always buy tires and ride what moves across my field of vision. My favorite ride is a $25 bike and it don't know that it ain't pretty.
I can find satisfaction in an old junker too. Some of them just like me, Waddya gonna do?

Depending where you lived - The Men 3 speed C- Itoh = here in NYC Manhattan if it holds air & can be ridden on Craigslist $ 125.00 Easy . up to $150 - after that it gets harder but not impossible. I personally sold many like that for $125 - $135 for fast easy sell . other dealers here in nyc will post for $ 200 & up or even more ! but ad's stays forever looking for a hipster sucker from newbie in the city.
