This is a typical "scrapper" pickup truck which lives a few blocks away from us. As you can see, once again the scrappers have beat us to a bike frame. More than once we've found nice bike parts in the trash but were unable to carry the parts at that moment. Returning with the Workhorse bike to retrieve the pieces not ten minutes later, the scrappers had claimed the booty instead. To find bike parts in Chicago takes a lot of persistent alley riding, luck, and the ability to transport parts as soon as they are discovered.
