We used to have this bike auction twice a year in town where the bike association got permission to block off a section of a road downtown to vehicular traffic. Sellers would pick their spot to set up on both sides at the curb - first come, first serve. Did OK for a couple of years, then the rules changed and you had to schedule with them where you would set up. Friends and the well-connected (or well greased!) vendors got the primo spots, and people like me were left with only the out-of-the-way locations. With COVID I don't even know if they're doing it. And I prefer not to have every Tom, Dick, and Harry coming by my house. Lately my bike building has been for friends and family only.
