Welcome to the Hanover Cyclers
The Hanover Cyclers was formed in 1974 to promote bicycling as
a form of
family recreation and to promote bicycle safety. The Club advocates the
enactment of laws pertaining to the interests of bicyclists,
recognition of the
bicycle as a vehicle used for pleasure, health and transportation, and
organizes friendly bicycle rides for cyclists of all abilities. Click here to read more.

STOP, SWAP, and SAVE
Again this year Hanover Cyclers has rented a space at the Westminster Bicycle Swap Meet held at the Carroll County Agricultural Center's Danelle Shipley Arena. This is an indoor heated arena. The date for this year's event is February 12, 2012. Time: 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Our space will be run under the same rules as the past. Hanover Cyclers can have items sold by the Club at the Swap Meet and the Club will receive 10% of the price the item(s) were sold. In order to have items sold you will need to contact me to be assigned an ID #. This code letter will be used to identify the items as belonging to and being sold by you. Each item you wish to sell must be marked with the ID letter followed by a unique item number (example C-10) and the asking price. You will also need to prepare a list of the items to be sold in numerical order providing a description, asking price, and lowest price you are willing to accept. We will attempt to secure the asking price but will sell items no lower than the lowest price you list.
Items to be sold should be delivered to my home no later than Thursday, February 9, 2012 along with the list of items and prices. You may bring the items to the swap meet directly yourself, but please let me know what you intend to bring.
Bicycles will not be sold at the Club's space but can be taken by you to the "Bikes for Sale" area of the Swap meet. You must deliver any bicycles to the Meet yourself. For $5 per bike you may lock and display your bike. You will be paged over the PA system when a prospective buyer is interested in your bike. You must provide your own lock.
I will need help setting up, manning and tearing down the booth the day of the swap meet. Set-up will begin at 7:30 AM, doors open at 9:00 AM and tear down will commence at 2:00 PM. Please contact me no later than Friday, February 3rd and volunteer for a two hour shift.
