There are only *TWO* weeks left until the swap meet!

3/29/26 at the Franklin County Fairgrounds Hilliard, Ohio. We will be in the Edwards AND Ganyard buildings. This is an indoor event, and will go on rain or shine!

If you plan to bring old gear to sell and want to reserve a space, act quick! The individual tables are almost sold out. We do also still have a handful of larger spaces available. While these are better for shops bringing a large amount of gear, there's nothing stopping YOU from emptying out your garage/basement and loading a few tables up with your unused stuff! Or split the space with a friend!

If you don't have anything to sell but want to come browse, entry is only $5 for ages 16 and up. Kids are free!

We will have Travelin Tom's Coffee Truck on site.

Don't miss out!

The 2026 swap meet is on! Sunday March 29, 10am-2p. Franklin County Fairgrounds. 5035 Northwest Pkwy, Hilliard, OH, 43026.

This year will be an official COP event. We have TWO buildings reserved. We will have larger spaces for shops wishing to set up a large display (approximately 12'x18'), as well as 3 spots available between the buildings to pull up a shop van and set up outdoors.

Registration is via the COP website this year. This should make the sign up process much easier than it has gone in previous years.

Reserve your space today!

I'm sure some of you noticed that NBC4 was at the swap meet last month for the Yay Bikes ride, but also did a little bit of filming in the swap meet. I didn't realize anything ever came of it until today.

Huge thanks to everyone that came out today and made it such a huge success! We nearly doubled total attendance from last year. 340+ people!!

We filled the building with 50+ tables, a even had a couple vendors that braved the elements and set up outside.

The OneLove Cafe and Bikes mobile cafe was a huge hit. I also saw we had some people join Ric for his tire clinic, and Ohio Bike Lawyer - Steve Magas for Bike Law 101.

Congratulations to Matthew on winning the raffle for the Felt Bicycle donated by Ann Louise, and Abbie who won the door prize from Brenda and Yay Bikes!

There was even an unexpected (at least to me) visit from Gracie Collins from NBC4, and Jeff got some info out about Columbus Outdoor Pursuits Bicycling and Tour of the Scioto River Valley - TOSRV, coming up May 16-18 - registration is available now!

See you all again in 2026!

Please feel free to add any photos you took in the comments! We hope everyone had a good time today!

Please give a big thanks to the volunteers who helped today go as well as it did!
