The St. Louis Regional Bicycle Federation’s sixth Bicycle Swap Meet and Classic Bike Show is approaching. On Sunday, January 27, from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., bicycle vendors will be showing and selling all sorts of bicycles and bicycle goods for great prices. Vendors include several local bike shops, individuals, groups and more and many come from around the country. Admission is $6 in advance (buy online), $7 at the door, at the Gateway Center, One Gateway Drive in Collinsville, IL 62234 (just a 12 minute auto drive from the Arch or use MetroLink to the Fairview Heights stop).

Saturday, October 27th: Hangovers be damned. Bring your coolest, oldest, funnest, interesting-est bikes and join the FBC in Tower Grove Park, for the first ever FBC Bike Show, Swap Meet and Ally Cat Race.

We reserved a big pavilion on the Arsenal side of Tower Grove, with a beer permit, and bar-be-que pits. The idea is that everyone should bring out their coolest bikes, any bikes or parts they want to sell, beer and food and come hang out in the park with the FBC.

Friday, October 26th: Full Moon Fiasco #31. We leave Turtle Park at 11:00pm sharp.

This is the 2nd year for Cranksgiving, last year we had 42 riders who stopped at five grocery stores picking up over $800 worth of non-perishable foods for local food pantries. This years ride includes two routes. One for those who need a shorter route (5-6 miles) and the longer route (22-25miles). On the 18th of November we will be starting @ Bicycle works @ 4102 Shenandoah Ave. St. Louis, Missouri 63110 at Noon.

Here are some of the photos from last year
