Having problems with message search?
FYI regarding a question about where to take old tubes and tires for recycling- check with your local shop.

So I sent emails to 4 of the bike stores in town (Performance Bikes, Bicycle Warehouse, Trek and B&L Bike and Sports), just to see if any of them actually recycle tires/tubes. Here is the first response I received...from B&L.
I, for one am glad to see this...I like to support stores that are good environmental stewards (besides just turning a profit).

Hi Kevin,
Yes, its true. Take your tires to our San Diego store, 3603 Camino del Rio West, San Diego, 92110 and put them in the big bin on the floor. The tires and tubes are ground up and used in flooring products. We do this program in conjunction with Specialized.
Since you're probably a recycling fan, just FYI, our shop is one of the only ones which recycles scrap metal from bike repairs. We recycled a few tons of metal last year.
Keep cycling and recycling,
Scott
