In cooperation with The Cumberland Community Forest Society (CCFS) we are proud to coordinate the Comox Valley's first bicycle sale and swap with 10% of all sales going to the CCFS!

Road to mountain, kids to commuter - bikes, frames, forks, parts, clothing, shoes, tools and accessories. No helmets will be accepted for safety reasons.

Drop your bike/parts/clothing off with a price either Saturday May 23 between 4-6pm or on Sunday May 24 at 11am to the CRI car park in Cumberland and receive a numbered ticket. *Please note that high value items over $75.00 will need a current Photo ID for registration*. The sale starts on Sunday at 12 and goes until 4pm. Then return your ticket and receive your money, less 10%. Any bikes and parts left behind or donated will be given to World Bikes who aid the homeless with bikes and maintanance.

100% of proceed from sales will be donated to the CCFS and we encourage all to donate monthly to the charity. Future loans for aquisition of more forest is easier when you have a monthly income!

The event is a great place to buy your child a bike or swap yours for one more your style or just to pick up a part or jersey. So start sorting out your stuff in the garage and instead of leaving it to rot, trade it in for something you want! Obviously we don't want garbage or rusty bits of metal, the bikes must work and the clothes clean and wearable. There will be knowledgable volunteers helping people work out the value of items and offering buying advice.
