Well I didn't get murdered, when he called he said he was running late, told me what he was driving and his name was Hunter. Hes Hunter am I the hunted, Met and followed him, he turned off the blacktop road onto a classic PA. dirt road winding thru the woods I'm thinking about all the joking we did on this thread this morn. Is this where I die today. Rounded a turn and saw a beautiful farm estate and 6 bikes in a row outside the barn. Realy nice guy when he saw my Oxygen tank he loaded all the bikes in my van, I tried to give him a few bucks but he wouldn't take it, shook my hand and thanked me for not being a CL serial killer, I thought that was funny. I don't think there is any treasure there but I only got about $10 in fuel invested.

Not bad at all. You found some old bikes and met a nice, helpful person. In society today, people are too ready to reward the cynical person by thinking of him as "savvy" or to penalize the sociable and honest person by calling him "naive". The road takes a pleasant turn sometimes and not all surprises are bad. Looks like you did fine.
 
I cleaned up a few of the free bikes, had to make 2 chains, I think every rim is missing a few spokes, I'm glad they aren't worth much so no guilt in what I'm doing to them.

I have a stingray on CL and just got a call from a guy that said he dosen't want to buy my bike but wanted to know if I collected, fixed, resold them and I said yes all of the above. He said he has 4 Schwinn bike's like the one I have advertised and I could have them for free. Here's the catch he wouldn't give me his address but wants to meet at a gas station a couple towns over. He sounded normal and legit but is this one of those to good to be true deals, (be careful) he said the bikes are in his barn about 1 mi. from the gas station. If its true I'll post some pic's, if ya never here from me again it went way wrong. LOL I think I should take a chance. I also have to remember that all old bikes are Schwinns.
Take a friend
