Hello, anyone near Sarasota, Clearwater, Tampa FL?

A complete CL bike, purchase and drop at LBS for shipping. Lots of karma and goodies for your time and effort.

Hello, Anyone available to go a bit north of Charlotte North Carolina (Mooresville, NC) to pack & ship a bike?
I'll provide pre-paid shipping label, and no money needs to change hands at your end. Just the PITA of packing...

Cheers, Eric

Also looking for a facilitator for a potential purchase located in Rogersville, TN, (Knoxville, TN and Asheville, NC closest larger cities). Will need pick-up, pack, and ship by you and/or LBS.

As noted earlier, I am willing to facilitate (pick-up/pack/ship) for purchases in the Las Vegas, NV area.

Can potentially help between Santa Barbara and Santa Maria and maybe north to San Luis Obispo along the 101 in California's Central Coast. Pretty slammed with work and a newborn these days, but I can try. //Edit: Sorry; moved; updated info at the end of the thread. Moved to Central Massachusetts for work, but the riding is pretty awesome when it's not winter.//

Is there any one that can help out in the Seattle area? I would like help with a frame in Renton. Added bonus if you are coming to Eroica CA (when rescheduled) or know someone making the trip by car, so it can be a hand off. Please PM me if interested and available

Anybody willing to help in Fremont/Bay Area in these poor conditions? Don't need shipping, just hanging onto a bike til I can get down to there. Thanks.


I'm happy to help in Sacramento and Davis as well. Don't like to pack or ship, but have good shops around.
