This Weekend: 5th Annual Bike Swap

May is right around the corner, next Wednesday, in fact. That means that Bike Month 2013 kicks off in a little less than a week. And that means that this weekend is the perfect time to pull those bikes out of the garage, and get them dusted off, pumped up, tuned up, and shined up, and maybe even take them out for a spin.

If you’re looking for a destination for a ride this Saturday, or if it turns out you need a little more work on your bike, or maybe a new bike altogether, think about heading over to the 5th Annual Bike Swap. Buy, sell, trade-up, or just improve your ride ahead of Bike Month at the swap.

5th Annual Tacoma Bike Swap

SATURDAY, APRIL 27th 10AM-2PM

University of Puget Sound Memorial Fieldhouse, N 11th Ave and Union, Tacoma, WA
