Back in September we blogged about NYC's annual bike swap, the NY Bike Jumble. Well, as you'd probably guess Austin has it's own version called Frankenbike that takes place every month. Repeat: every month. (This month's event is sponsored by Mellow Johnny's, that's Lance's bike shop.)

Ok, I know Austin's a huge cycling town and all but NYC is the biggest city in the US with a population of more than 8 million, compared with Austin's 800,000. We're ten times larger, carrying an extra 7+ million people... you'd think we could support a bike swap at least once a month.
