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 Crap! New Bikes!

Today was weird. We picked up about a dozen bikes. Seriously, a dozen bikes, and as Big J was helping out today, we managed to get all but 2 ready to sell. Take a look over at the main site for full descriptions of what we still have, but here's the gist:

Nishiki Road Bike
Mongoose Dual Shock MTB
Next BMX
Fuji Single Shock MTB
Huffy Cruiser (Men's)
Woman's Road Bike
2 Old Style Cruisers

We also sold several bikes before we even got them up onto the site. In case you were wondering:
K2 Hybrid Bike
Next Dual Shock MTB
Huffy Cruiser (Women's)

Beyond the new bikes, we're also dropping the price on a few bikes that have been in the shop a little longer than I'd like. Check the site for up to date prices.

PS: If you were counting, I've listed 11. #12 is a parts bike.
