Starbuc71 162 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 As many know on here and have also said, if you want a bike for more than 3 or 4 days and you have a way to get to the closest Wal-mart, you would be better buying a $59 bike and pay it forward when you left. $18 a day x 3 days = $54.00 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder if there is any way to work the logistics of having some Fiend bikes available for use? A Fiend Bike Swap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I think it's a great idea if we can find a way to pull it off.But does that mean the bikes have to be purple? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder if there is any way to work the logistics of having some Fiend bikes available for use? A Fiend Bike Swap.I have always thought that the logistics of trying to do a swap would be too hard. One refrigerator is one thing. A bunch of bikes, and where to keep them in between uses is the problem.What I think could work, though, is to have some Fiendcycles that could be kept at one of the long term visitors' sites. Or locked to a bike rack somewhere. Fiends would get the combo to the lock, and they could be first come first served.The city of Tampa tried something like this a couple of years ago. They bought a bunch of bikes and painted them day glow orange. The concept was people could just pick one up and use it to get around town, then leave it for the next guy. I think they all disappeared within a few weeks. oops.I could see the same thing happening with Fiendcycles.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I think the bike swap is a great idea. I'll start one this Christmas. Forget logistics I'm buying one a walmart for my DD7 and pay it forward to a fellow Fiend and ask them to pay it forward when they leave to another fiend. I wonder how long the bike will remain at the fort? Maybe I'll think of away to right my name and date on it and encourage others to do the same. Just an idea.

(Can we start a pool on how long it'll stick around?)Tie a big sharpie to it somehow so everyone that uses it can "autograph" it. And maybe if you cover it in Snarky stickers people will think twice about stealing it. :rofl2: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
