Spokane Bike Swap - April 10 & 11
Grab life by the handlebars at the Spokane Bike Swap & Expo! Join the fun April 11 & 12 at the
Spokane County Fair & Expo Center from 9am – 3pm.
- Have a bike you’ve outgrown or upgraded? Sell It
- Want to buy a new or used bike? Shop It
- Have a bike you don’t want anymore? Donate It
- Want to connect with a local bike club, bike shop, biking event or learn how to put your bike on an STA bus? Discover It at the Spokane Bike Swap & Expo!
To sell or donate a bike, register it online today at www.SpokaneBikeSwap.com. Bikes must be in riding condition to sell or donate. Bike check in is on Friday, April 10 from 3-8pm. Bike registration is $5 and all bikes that sell will be assessed a 7% consignment fee. The consignment fee will be deducted before issuing the check to the seller. If your bike does not sell, you will not be charged the 7% fee. The $5 registration cost is waived on kids’ bikes with 20 inch wheels or smaller that are priced $50 or less.
“There is great demand for affordable kids’ bikes because they outgrow them so quickly,” states volunteer Karen Nielsen. “The Bike Swap is an affordable way to get bikes in the hands of children in our community who may not have the opportunity to learn how to ride a bike, unless it’s a good deal and in good shape.”
From kids bikes and road bikes to tandems and tri-bikes, great deals await and over 700 bikes are expected for the Bike Corral. If the Bike Corral doesn’t have what you’re looking for, ten local bike shops will be on hand with competitively-priced bikes and accessories including Fitness Fanatics, Wheel Sport, North Division Bicycle Shop, Northwest Recumbent Cycles, Bicycle Butler, Terra Sports, Monkey Boy Bicycles, This Bike Life, Two Wheel Transit and the Bike Hub. In addition, over 50 exhibitors will be on hand with information on biking events, clubs, destinations, health & fitness and much more!
