A Haro mountain bike thingy. It was used a bit but not too much. Noodles and a few bolts were rusted. We immediately rehomed this with a friend so we did a spiffy tuneup job to make it all work smoothly before handing it over.
Yet another Babytrend Expedition jogging stroller. Small rip in the fabric, which we do not acknowledge as a genuine reason for discard, and otherwise pretty shiny and functional.
A pretty nice Raleigh Record. Some of the parts were in in rough shape but a few swaps from spares and some cleaning has made it into a nice bike.
One reasonably good large format spooge gun. It even had a tube of liquid nails in there, or some such. This will come in handy at some point when we need to spooge a lot of stuff into crevices.
This Stanley spirit level was a little crudded up when we got it but a nice scrape clean and wipe and it is good to go. It even appears to be spot on in accuracy. We needed one this length 6 months ago but were reluctant to buy one knowing that one would show up in the trash, and here we go.
Jamis Capri bike with derailleur gears. Not exactly sure what style this is, it is clearly something like a beach cruiser with gears and generally more functional. Whatever, somebody will want to ride it. Was poorly set up when we found it, now somewhat better adjusted. We suspect incorrect initial customer assembly might be the reason for discard. This is somewhat common.
Matching items, presumably from the same source, certainly pretty much brand new. First a Babytrend Expedition jogging stroller. Pretty spiffy.
Also a Babytrend Snap-and-go stroller frame thingy.
It is possible this is the discarded hardware version of the short story "For sale: baby shoes, never worn".
A Tough Traveller back for moving small whiny offspring around. Seems all present and correct, but detailed inspection awaits.
Yet another Babytrend Expedition double jogging stroller. Small tear in the fabric, some yucky black water inside the frame and lots of mud all over. Otherwise should be fine after a good clean. A functional east to fold way to move two offspring around.
Pic shows it after initial hose down.
