Nothing too special here, but I picked up this Trek 4300 last week for $100 and sold it yesterday for $200. With any bike, if I'm not pretty sure I can resell it for at least double what I paid, I don't go for it. I've recently picked up 3 more higher end bikes that I will hold on to until summer so I needed to make some room. The total now is up to $1,375 and is slowly moving forward even in the dead of winter! I would like to be to $3,000 by the time bike season rolls around again. Slowly but surely!
Grindin it out, one bike at a time!

Triathlon bikes sell best while it's snowing
That's the only logical conclusion, I guess. This Quintana Roo Kilo road bike is designed for triathlons. I picked it up for $300 a couple weeks ago. Like the other bikes, it would sell for 20% or so more in the summer, but I was satisfied to settle for the $550 I was offered today. That's a profit of $250 bringing the new total to $1,275. Starting to take some big steps!
