Will do.

I don't really want to get a table, but if anyone has room at theirs for a half dozen bikes or so we can split the cost or? Never been to one of these....are the prices/atmosphere similar to a car swap meet?

It's the same process Dave, everyone selling has something we all " need". Just dicker with people, there's also a corral for complete bikes. You pay $10 to put them there, if they don't sell you get $5 back.

Aside from that, I've bought parts for $1 that are worth $20 and I've over paid for stuff because I needed it.

Of course everyone is willing to trade, so maybe carry some smalls around with you.

Oh and if you still have a certain frame, bring it.

 

[CrazyDave]

hahaha Falstaff, thanks for the info first of all, As for that frame I went to make something of it and quickly discovered it was a 24", the fork aint bent either If you still want it I will bring it, Im into building any pink and white schwinn and trying to build up a few balloon tired bikes. Can trade up, down or sideways.

I'm still interested in that frame for sure, it won't work for my wife's build; but I like it.
I can't help you with the debutante, but between memory lane and Ann Arbor; I think you'll do well.

 

[CrazyDave]
