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:

The Return of the Bike
Remember the good old days when a GBP bike only cost $50? I miss those days. It used to be that we got good, reasonable quality bikes on the cheap all the time. Lately it's been all we can do to find bikes to sell for twice that price. That is, until this week. So far we've picked up 5 mountain bikes (3 of the 24" wheel variety) that'll be on sale for only $50 this Saturday. Add that to the Mongoose already in the shop and that means we've got 6 mountain bikes for the economically minded (read: poor college student). We of course still have a slew of road bikes and BMX bikes for those of you who are looking for something different. See you Saturday!
