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.

Green Bikes in 2009!

Hello all. I'm sorry about the long duration of silence. I was able to take two weeks off from my day job (sometimes an economic crisis works out well when you're out of vacation days) and decided to take an impromptu trip. I'm back now and back to work. Several of the bikes that are "projects" are nearing completion. With the help of a brand spanking new work stand, donated by a friend of the GBP in New Jersey, these will be available soon. If you can't wait, there are still several bikes available from November and December (see the bikes in the shop list to the right). I've listed the complete ones with the current GBP prices for your convince.

On a separate note. The GBP is growing in preperation for the spring biking season. We're looking for a new home for the new year aswell as more voulenteers. If you know of a spot or want to pitch in let me know. Remember, GBP is not for profit so reasonable sugestions only please.
