Yet another slightly different trailer bike for the purpose of offspring transportation. This one has a superior folding mechanism to the previous few but has a crappy steel wheel on the rear. It may end up being retained for usage but being improved with a few new parts along the way.
A Schwinn World Sport road bike in pretty nice shape, just needed new bar tape and a cleanup to be ready for a new owner.
A Schwinn World ladies frame road bike. It needs a bit of a cleanup and some bar tape but was easy enough to put back into service.
A Schwinn Traveller III road bike in need of c cleanup. New bar tape, a tuneup and some general attention made it good to go. No key present for the U-lock so that had to go.
This is a very early Peg Perego Pliko pushchair, we think. It is in OK shape and has a nice primary colour look to it so it should find a home somewhere with some nice people sent by the list of craig.
This is a Mercedes-Benz cylinder head bolt helicoil kit. It is obviously not all present and correct but there are two M10x1.5 taps in there that look excellent, plus one matching helicoil and an insertion tool. Handy stuff. The box is pretty spiffy also.
This Le Creuset enameled cast iron skillet seems in OK shape, it is just a little used. The interior lining seems to be intact and it has a few chips on the outside.
It is shown sitting on a Dell Pentium 4 PC but that should not necessarily be interpreted as a comment on how hot modern computing machinary runs. This particular Dell made an appearance on this page a while ago and was cleaned up and given away. We got it back because it caught something nasty, so we get to redeploy it to somewhere new after a clean up and configuration. We know of a local bike shop that has a worn out Athlon 866Mhz as their P.O.S. machine and this might be a nice upgrade for them.
Yet another nice Topeak bike seat, this one missing the special rack that allows quick-release functionality. Never mind, somebody will want it and they will make themselves known to us via the list of craig in due course.
This Murray beach Cruzer (sic) is close enough to a hybrid style bike to be useful, as opposed to regular beach cruisers. As such it will find a home with some prospective cyclist in a nearby large city. No apparent reason for discard, apart from just being crap.
We picked this up thinking there might be a market for these and indeed there is. Unfortunately it is a low value saturated market full of crud. This will be given away on the list of craig or failing that tossed out.
This handy dandy little stepladder will be hidden away in some corner until such time as we feel the need to be taller for some reason.
This random Radio Flyer peanut car is just about right for a certain offspring.
Two random boxes of fairly recent Lego stuff. These will be stored and deployed top offspring as a appropriate.
This Bianchi Rollo was missing a seat and had a dinged up front wheel. It is not the most valuable Bianchi in the world but once cleaned up it is pretty fun to ride. It will be held in stock as a bike for visitiors for a while.
This Milwaukee Sawzall seems to be in a pretty sorry state, missing the rubber grip and the foot and the cord is pretty wrecked. It does work though and will be archived for parts usage or some other nefarious project.
A large plastic bucket full of various things. A lot of it was junk but in there were some useful plumbing fittings and some solder and plumbers' sandpaper. These will be filed in the appropriate places for when they might be needed.
1800 or so collated nails. If you have a gun that shoots these you are probably welcome to them.
These two kids trailing bikes showed up a while ago but we only recently got around to looking at them. The Trek one was missing the seat and had a bent crank, both now rectified. The Tag-a-long was fine as is.
This Maclaren pushchair was pretty dirty. The aforementioned pressure washer was used to clean it up a little and soon it will appear on the list of craig to seek its fortune.
The rear wheels were very worn, a common issue with these devices. They were replaced with some matching used ones from stock. and it is now in very good condition.
These two beach chairs are of the reclining variety and also happen to be brand new with the plastic still in place. They will be deployed at some stage ina sandy environment.
