Weekly Update: bike sales, Quad Fix-it day, Bucket Brigade

Posted by Sarthak Prasad on May 3, 2021

All, Had some nice warm weather last week. Sold a few more bikes. It’s almost as if there’s some kind of correlation between warmer weather and bike riding?
Elsewhere: we had two participants for our Friday Ride. We had our first Quad Fix It Day but that was a bust: cool and rainy weather don’t make for a good bike time. We’ll do another one this Thursday but it’s forecasting for rain and cool weather again. Spring is fickle.
Pending approval from Channing Murray, I’ll do a delivery run for the Bucket Brigade this week and see if it’s viable/feasible as a recurring event that we can promote.

Our donations are picking up but mostly it’s been scrap-worthy parts, including maybe the worst salt/water damaged frame I’ve ever seen. Fun times!
The numbers:

Visitors: 30 (I card only)
Sales: 1,241.60
Memberships: 7 for $210
Bikes (refurb): 5 for $820
Tires/tubes: 7 for $40

Thanks!
