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.

New Bikes!

FLASH: In an unprecedented move, the GBP has purchased a lot of 6 road bikes thereby doubling their entire road bike output for their entire existence!

Yes, the rumors are true. The GBP has purchased 6 new road bikes in sizes ranging from 48cm (yes a very small bike) to 62cm (of course, a very large bike). The bikes range from fixers to ready to ride. They're a mix of men's and women's frames.

If you have requested a bike in the last few months and are still looking, I will be sending emails later this week. If you requested a specific bike and I have one that might match your request, you get first dibs until shop hours Saturday. After that, it's first come first served!

In further good news, these bikes may be just the first of many. There is a chance I can pick up quite a few more over the next few months. So if you have a need, EMAIL ME. You get to be first on the list when I get new bikes!
