Enjoyed my first visit to this cycle jumble. Very friendly and allowed me to advertise my own auction on 7th June. Couldn't find any of the really specific bits I was looking for: Shimano AX 600 and Raleigh Road Ace related but it didn't stop me buying some other useful stuff. :)

There is a specialist cycle section along with a general auction being held at Itchen Abbas Village Hall, near Winchester, Hampshire on Saturday 7th June. It's a pop up auction. Items are delivered in the morning, viewed at lunchtime and sold in the afternoon. Full description here:
http://www.auctionsinaday.co.uk/cycles/If you want sell a bike, parts or clothing, you can post a photograph and description on the web site now to promote your item on the web. There are pages for Cycles & Frames, Parts, Tools, Clothing and Accessories. Obviously buyers can view them there as well.
There is space for up to 100 bikes in the garden of the village hall. I am looking forward to sunny weather and filling it.
I would be pleased to answer any questions here or via comments on the web site.
Declaration of interest. I am the auctioneer for the bike section and I have been part of the team running Auctions in a Day since 2003.
Tip: Could be a great day out. Its a 5 mile ride from Winchester or 8 miles from Micheldever station. There are many great rides up in to the downs and along the Itchen and a bit further away Meon Valley. Littered with great pubs selling locally brewed beer. But we do the best home made cakes.

Son (who is here somewhere is encouraging me to ride. Sounds like fun.
Our first cycle auction in June attracted 140 lots and about 100 buyers. The day started with a cracking thunderstorm for those setting up and finished with a great sale in the sunshine. You can see a report on the day

The next auction will be on Saturday 6th September starting 12 noon at the same location Itchen Abbas Village Hall near Winchester. Full details of this auction are here: http://www.auctionsinaday.co.uk/cycles/
