    Riding around ND campus I saw over a hundred bikes abandonded at the end of the school year. They were tagged with a date that led me to believe the school would eventually collect them. I wonder what they do with them. They could practically start a Amsterdam style public bike program!

    I think they auction them back to the students at the beginning of the next year, with the proceeds going to charity.

    It’s a bit silly, in my personal opinion: if they’re going to store them all summer anyway, why not just charge a fee for that and donate that to charity? I suppose they’d still have to do something with all the bikes not stored, then.

    I wonder if any of the bikes aren’t sold, and what they do with them. I think there is a charity in Goshen based around rebuilding junk bikes?
