It's Time for the LAST Annual Bike Sale!
When: Saturday June 6th, 10 a.m.
Where: 2811 Weeks Ave SE, Minneapolis, MN 55414 (this is the back side of the ReUse warehouse)
Location: 883 29th Ave SE, Minneapolis MN 55414 (Address for the South side of building is 2811 Weeks Ave SE, Minneapolis, MN 55414)
Not familiar with the Area? No problem! Head to our regular front entrance and follow the signs to the sale.
Sale Schedule:
We aim to start letting customers in by 10 am, but may open earlier if ready.
To ensure a smooth shopping experience, we'll allow a small group in at a time to browse the bikes.
New groups will enter every 2-3 minutes.
FAQ:
Will there be a line? Likely, but it moves quickly. In past years, the line has cleared entirely within about 2 hours or less.
Will all bikes sell? Probably not. Some customers may be browsing for others. We typically have a few bikes left at the end. We do limit one bike per person, to ensure there are a good amount of bikes for everyone
Pricing: Prices start around $50-$75 (originally $100-$125) and increase based on quality and condition.
Bike Condition: Most bikes are fixed and ready to ride. This year, we may also have a small number of specialty bikes (recumbent, tandem, etc.) that are sold "as-is" for project enthusiasts.
Early Arrival: While no one has ever camped out, a few dedicated cyclists have arrived around 7am when we start setting up. The line typically grows throughout the morning, with around 50-75 people an hour before opening and then grows fast after that.
Parking: Free street parking is available on Como Ave, Weeks Ave, and 27th Ave SE. Please avoid parking in the ReUse area, which is reserved for our warehouse customers. Adhere to all parking signs to avoid tickets. Additional parking can be found on nearby streets.
Payment: This is a cashless event. We accept major credit cards, debit cards, tap payments, Google Pay, and similar electronic methods.
This event only happens because of the great partnership between the UMN ReUse Program and the bike shops we work with, Mr. Michael Recycles Bicycles and Full Cycle!
We look forward to seeing you there!
