I'll be there. Also looking for parts for a build. Looking forward to it, I've never been to a bike swap.

I've never been either! My dad used to go to a big on in Rockford, but I never went with him. I can't wait to see what is available! What are you building?

I'm going to build a commuter/cyclocross. I have the drivetrain, but I haven't decided on a frame. What about you?

I've got an old department store no namer that I'm turning into a true fixed gear. The tricky part is that it's a 26 inch wheel size, so finding road wheels for that size is a bit challenging. I'm hearing that you should get to the swap early because of the lines. Just an FYI.
