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.

Holy Cow

Today was a good day at the shop. We managed to sell EVERY road bike we had ready to go as well as almost every mountain bike and a cruiser to boot. I've removed all the bikes from the main site that sold. If it looks a little empty in the online store, that's nothing compared to the shop. We're down to a few BMX, a pair of cruisers, and an assortment of non-standard bikes. I have two or three bikes to add to the website later tonight (I have a party to celebrate the forming of the Graduate Student Union to attend at the moment). We also have about a 1/2 dozen bikes in the shop that are close to being ready. This includes 3 hybrid bikes! It's been a while since we had any of those so don't miss this chance! And before you ask, I'm not taking orders. You gotta come in to claim them.
