Welcome to the GBP Blog

This is the Blog associated with our main website TheGreenBicycleProject.org

The GBP has merged with Damn Good Bikes LLC. Please visit the new blog for more recent updates.

We are the GBP. Our mission is to keep bikes on the road and thus keep cars off. We call this “Bikecycling”; that’s recycling, but for bikes. The concept is simple. Take a bike that’s no longer wanted, broken, or even bound for a landfill and apply a bit of knowhow and a lot of elbow grease and you get a bike that can last someone for years. These bikecycled bikes are sold at a price that covers only our costs in repairing them so as to provide bicycles at the lowest cost possible. All of our bikes are repaired and tuned by a mechanic so that from the moment you pick them up they are ready to hit the road. Take a look below for our current project bikes and completed rides.

Location:
We are located in the US Storage facility at Capital Circle NE and Mahan Rd. While have moved into our new store, we are in the same complex. To get there follow the road through the complex, around the 90 degree bend and make the first left (at the tree). We'll be the first store front on your right. Sound complex? The best way to find us is to follow the bikes!

Buying our bikes:
Please visit our main website at thegreenbicycleproject.org for information about buying our bikes. You may also email us at Thegreenbicycleproject@gmail.com.

SOLD: Woman's Timberland Urban Express MTB



Bike #2 of 2009 is a woman's Timberland Urban Express bike. It's an 18", 21 speed, fixed frame bike. This bike has the upright handlebars that makes it ideal for commuting and the indexed shifting makes it a joy up and down hills. The usual overhaul and drive train cleaning has been done and absolutely everything was perfect.

The bike is considered "green" as it is priced at only $60. This bike is a great deal. To sweeten the pot, the origional owner is throwing in a helmet and "anything else" she can find. I assume I get to keep the kitchen sink (as we happen to share it).

I need a bike TODAY and am interested in this one. My car died and I need immediate transportation. The only problem is that I need it delivered. Killearn area. Is this possible? Please contact me at flkat60@yahoo.com. Thanks, Kathy
