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.

October 19th Chain Links


Man, was it just me or was last weekend the longest weekend ever? Seriously. It seemed like that sucker would never end! Thank god I was having fun all weekend or else it would have been kinda a downer. Here's a handful of links that shows how for every bit of bad there seems to be some good.


First: Imagine getting your entire inventory stolen in one weekend. I suppose GPS would help. I prefer the hidden camera myself.


Second: For every sane and well reasoned article there seems to be one nutjob looking to cause trouble.


Third: If you missed this weekend's State Mountain Bike Championships at Tom Brown, here are some pictures to soften the blow. Take notice of the types of bikes being ridden. I promise you that there are none of these.
