Im sure Mike Wolfe has a huge love for bicycles and pretty much anything on wheels. I have never met him but I hear is a cool guy. I used to watch American Pickers a lot with my daughter. After the first season we were hooked. Then as time passed on the scene of collecting started to change. People were hip to what things were worth. It seemed as if the good deals were by the wayside. Every estate sale I went to or garage sale, the first thing out of the sellers mouth was, "I saw this go for $300 on American Pickers!" And now its a common household word.
I feel like they sold all of us out, collectors and antique proprietors etc.
