bikes

trashed, stolen or just abandoned?  Saw these behind a building which houses a small grocery and plant store that had lots of trash.  You can see it when you walk by.

  2. Hi Bill.

    Too bad, maybe something can be done about it.

  3. Un mezzo utilissimo, per la città, talvolta abbondonato senza motivo.
    Buona giornata

  4. It’s hard to tell if they were forgotten or left on purpose, but either way, they carry a quiet story of neglect that makes you wonder what happened.

  8. The bikes seem too functional to have been abandoned.

  9. They look like they are in good condition. Maybe 3 people left them there and will come back to get them! :-D

  12. Some useful bikes don't look abandoned, but perhaps just dropped by youngsters either going off for fun or like you mentioned, could have been stollen and used for a joy ride!

  13. They look like good bikes to be just abandoned. Take care, have a great weekend.

  14. The bikes look too good to be trash...but then as the saying goes, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

  15. I used to love my bicycles, and would never treat them with such disrespect. These do look abandoned, and perhaps asking to be stollen.

  18. You wonder why stuff is left in the wrong place. Once some things are left, they start to pile up as other people think it's a place to leave stuff.

  19. Those look like perfectly good bikes. Hopefully some kids stashed them there while they went into the store.

  22. Reminds me of when I was a kid. We would lay our bikes down and go exploring. Great photo.

  23. Could be kids just being untidy?

  31. Reminds me of our college campus every year at this time when the students just simply abandon their old rides.
