Found this like new 90's Huffy Ironman for $19 at Goodwill today. Put a rod holder on it and am giving it to a deserving middle schooler who prefers outdoor recreation over anything else.

Found a 2021 Retrospect step thru thrown out today. Already started parting it out. It was in terrible shape.
Old step thru Huffy Sahara 10 spd. that someone told me about today. Retrieved it from the trash. I like the fork. It will be easy to give that seat away. Tires are good, wheels are rough.
That Retrospec bike is the first time I've seen one mentioned since I bought my Retrospec folder earlier this year. Previously I'd never heard of the brand.
That one had a shop sticker on it. I think it might have been one of the hundreds of rentals from our barrier islands. They were flooded with 15' of salt water during hurricane Ian two years ago. All steel parts were severely rusted even though it was a 2021 bike.

I've heard of Retrospec because of their Sully model. Looks like a lot of fun for the price

My neighbor delivers papers in the wee hours. He picked up these two matching Huffy Lockland 7 speeds on Monday for me. I adjusted everything and have them ready to give away. The paper man said the snowbirds are starting to arrive and are doing their annual throwing out of stuff.
3rd bike of the week. A Diamondback road bike. Put a tire on it and giving it away.
Looks like you get satisfaction putting your skills to work. And getting fed resources by other folk like your early paper guy makes it cheaper to be able to pass on the blessing.
The Lockland 7 speeds look ideal for a family with kids getting older.
I'm hoping a teenager who needs it is picking one up tomorrow.
