FALL BIKE & SKI SWAP
This year’s BIKE & SKI SWAP will be at the
Chaffee County Fairgrounds SATURDAY OCTOBER 17th, 2026.
PROCEEDS BENEFIT the non-profit BLUE ELEMENTS which works to
protect the watersheds of the Arkansas and Gunnison river basins.
A $5 suggested donation gets you into the swap to mingle with friends, peruse the wares and freshen up your gear scene. Is your closet or garage busting at the seams with ski and/or bike items you’ve been meaning to unload? Grab a table at the swap or drop your item off at the community table and let that gear make someone else super happy.
BUYING
Enter the swap with a $5 donation. You can always make an additional donation, too, since all proceeds go to the non-profit Blue Elements. We accept cards, but cash will keep the entry line moving! Kids 12 and under are free. Kids 27 and older are rad!
All purchases and transactions on the day of the swap are between sellers and buyers. Salida Bike Swap, Diane French and Sacha Halenda are in no way responsible for any costs, fees or taxes for the sale of goods and offers no returns, replacements or warranty of any kind expressed or implied. How sellers price items, negotiate sales and accept payment for goods is up to the seller. Unless otherwise specified, are sales are final and as is.
SELLING
Sign up a table for and sell your gear. For $50, we’ll provide an 8ft table and an area of about 8 feet x 8 feet around the table. If you need more space, you can reserve two ($100) which is a space of 16 feet wide x 8 feet deep… you can keep going in eight foot increments until you’ve taken over the world. If you have gear to sell but not enough to justify the $50, you can go in on a table with a friend or two — that’s cool. Please do NOT sell anything without a table. That’s not cool. If you only have an item or two you can take advantage of our community table (see below). A volunteer at the table will help you get your item priced and collect your information.
