Bike for sale!  by happypat

Bike for sale!

We have had my bike tied up outside for the last three weeks on & off when it’s not raining.
Today I put it up on our local FB market place. See how it gives there! Thought it might be a good time to sell. Harry’s bike went in the first week but no luck with mine!
We are fed up taking it in & out!
No need to comment just a diary shot!

Three good things:
1. A clean car, I went for a wash & vac to the garage this morning.
2. Finished my card writing.
3. The smell of fried onions, we love fried onions!
It looks like it’s in great condition! Love the basket!

Nice clean condition Pat , do I see your helmet in the basket as well !! - could be a nice Christmas Present for someone !! and a good way to exercise after all the Christmas food and festivities !

@loweygrace @beryl Thank you both…we thought it might go well at Christmas too but not much luck yet! We just want the space…think it might be Spring before any luck!

It looks very smart and very desirable. No idea why it won't sell. Good luck though and keep trying.

@busylady Just had an enquiry now. Had to go out in the wet & dark to measure frame. No idea what you do for that but took some measurements. No light in the shed yet so wasn’t easy!

Maybe the weather is against bicycles!

It looks as though it is in excellent condition, hope it sells soon.

Hope you sell it.. looks pretty good ..
Sounds like a great walk...

I gave up trying to sell my beautiful bike (not the electric one)! It was worth a bit of money and I wasn't going to give it away. It looked as good as yours. In the end a second-hand dealer gave us a heap of money for odds and ends and that was included!

@maggiemae Well it’s only worth as much as someone will pay I suppose. If I don’t sell it before Christmas it can wait until the better weather!

@quietpurplehaze very astute Hazel!!
December 13th, 2021  
Hope you sell it soon! I think it looks very nice and very well cared for.

@happypat

Ha!Ha! It looks lovely to me - but I am happy walking as you know!

@onewing @julzmaioro @louannwarren Would like to sell it as it’s taking up room in our much smaller shed. I did have a go on it a few months ago but decided not for me now although I used to love riding my bike. Where we lived before the road out of our little lane wasn’t safe & now I have moved where I could cycle all over I do too much wobbling!!

definitely not a snow bike :)

@pdulis Ha ha no it’s not!

Hope someone snaps it up

I use our FB Marketplace too, and I find sometimes things go really fast, other times, no bites

Looks in good shape

Looks like new. I'm sure you will have a buyer very soon.

A Claude Butler! Marvellous bikes.

I can't ride a bike anymore Pat, I have to put roller skates on both sides of my backside to stop them dragging on the ground (wink and sorry to be rude)
December 14th, 2021  
I am sure it will sell as it certainly looks to be in very good condition
December 14th, 2021  
It looks very neat and tidy
December 14th, 2021  
Looks lovely....and your size would probably fit me, but our area is so full of too narrow and busy roads and I've never been a very confident cyclist!! Unlike Jonathan who did Lands End to John o Groats....as you know!!
😂😂😂

I sold my bike as I was no longer confident enough to ride on busy roads. I do miss it but I think it was the right thing to do, I hope yours goes soon.It only needs one person!!
