Spring Sale - beginning April 17
by Jonathan Rosenbaum via PositiveSpin 11 Apr '18

11 Apr '18

Positive Spin received a large donation (80+ bikes) from the University Town Center Wal-Mart during March. This donation includes a mix of new bikes with mechanical problems, new bikes with a few missing parts, and returns. Our inventory now includes over 200 bikes. Space limitations mean we can't realistically store this many bikes long term while still having a usable workshop. For this reason we will be offering *discounted pricing* on a large number of bikes. Most of the Wal-Mart bikes have been organized and priced, and will be available beginning Tuesday (17th). Discounted bikes are being sold in as is condition. Don't know how to repair a bike? Don't worry! All bikes sold at Positive Spin come with a free month of stand time and guidance from volunteer mechanics. With an hour or two of your time, you will not only save a lot of money ($100 or more in most cases), but also learn valuable new skills. Pricing will be based on condition and will be 25% lower than our normal department store bike prices. 0-1 Repairs needed: $45 (Normal price $60) 2-4 Repairs needed: $30 (Normal price $40) 5+ Repairs needed: $15 (Normal price: $20)

TONIGHT - Spoky Halloween Night Ride
by Jonathan Rosenbaum via PositiveSpin 27 Oct '17

27 Oct '17

Tonight, around 7pm there will be an unplanned, unsponsored, informal, impromptu spoky (short-o) Halloween night ride beginning from the vicinity of Positive Spin's new location. Some things to keep in mind .. For night riding in the Morgantown area, the bike should be equipped with a front light and a red reflector on the rear of the bicycle, also a red taillight may be used, which is highly recommended. Helmets are required. Although, there is no plan to stop anywhere, it would be prudent to bring a locking device to secure your bike just in case we do decide to stop somewhere. The temperature should be pleasant during the daytime, however, it will go into the 50's (also pleasant) during the evening so dress accordingly. -Jonathan

Stolen Bike
by Jennifer Previll via PositiveSpin 20 Oct '17

20 Oct '17

Good afternoon: This is Jennifer Previll. I am informing that my roadbike was stolen sometime last night off my bike rack in Wiles Hill. The bike is Specialized Avita (women's frame), maroon in color, 2 water bottle cages on frame, lots of black electric tape on handlebars where original tape was tearing off. Also, not ordinary peddles, the peddles have toe clips with straps. I had put a report in with Morgantown PD but I cannot find the serial number that I had written down. If seen please call me at 304-282-0218 or call Morgantown PD. Thanks Jennifer Previll
