trash to treasure

I found this bike at the curb on trash night and asked Jeff to show it some love.



I've always wanted a black English bike, so he made me my very own rescued from the trash faux Pashley!



Final cost was about $175; a new Pashley costs $1395.

Wow! I looks great....I'm sure you'll look great riding it too....even better, though, is how you'll feel knowing that you "saved" it from an early grave!
