Nearly 200 people registered to bid on abandoned bicycles collected by Transportation Services earlier this month, and the number of bikes sold was more than double that.
In all, 458 bikes were sold, for a total of $13,565. The prices varied widely — the cheapest bike went for $29.62, while the most expensive — a Cannondale cyclocross bicycle — sold for $675.
Even so, that's not a bad deal for a bicycle with a retail price of around $1,400, Bicycle Program Coordinator Tim Bustos said.
