The 2014 New Paltz Bike Swap is on for Saturday May 10th. Please mark your calendars and come out to buy and sell used bikes and bike parts. This is the 7th year of the swap. It has grown to be the biggest fund raiser for the Fats Bike Club and we could not do it without member participation and volunteering.

The event is at the New Paltz Middle School from 10 AM to 2 PM. There will be hundreds of bikes, tons of new and used bike parts, the legendary FREE BOX, and tons 'o fun. There are road bikes, mtn bikes, BMX, cruisers, vintage, fixie, kids bikes, DH stuff and a scooter or two.

Volunteers get first crack at the goods.

We are setting up a committee for the swap. Please post up or PM me if you want to be involved.

See you at the swap!

Do you guys know if there will be many kids bikes? Looking for a 16" for my 4 year old. Would be happy to buy used or swap some smaller bikes.

The bike swap is a great place to get kids bikes! Get there promptly at 10, however as supplies are limited and bikes sell FAST! Good luck!

There will be at least 2 16 inch kids bikes - nice ones hardly used. Kids bikes are usually well represented. Get there no later than 10!

A HUGE success!!!!

Thanks to all of the volunteers for spending the day for the bike cause. Also, a big thanks to the many that donated items to the swap and club. Many bikes found new homes---

Excellent work!

Yes thanks to everyone that came to the swap, volunteered and made this event a big success. We had hundreds of people there, sold 139 bikes, helped lots to people get excited about biking and made $$$ for your bike club.

The volunteers were awesome and spent a lot of time before and during the event. Getting involved means spending some of your hard earned free time helping out. So a huge thank you to everyone that contributed to making this the best swap ever.

See you at the 2015 swap!
