Cool.

What's the story on the rows and rows of stuff on the upper floor? For sale? Some things for sale? How does that work?

I was just thinking about how we needed a swap meet in Pittsburgh. I'm hoping that people will be trading more (recent stuff) than antique/classical bikes and parts though?

This sounds cool. They did not have a parts swap meet during bike week this year and this give me a reason to go check this place out.

$30 seems a bit steep for selling the $7 worth of stuff I have. Can we partner up with our friends? Where does that $30 go?
