What is the farthest a bike has come to get to you?

[outskirtscustoms]

Most bikes I get that are higher end bikes (Or were back in the day) Still have the dealer sticker or bike shop sticker on them. I have seen hundreds from Peru, Indianapolis, even one from Michigan city, but I have one from Torrance, CA over 2,000 miles away. No idea how it would up in Kokomo, Indiana. So what's the farthest a bike has come to get to you?

I had one from Oklahoma and more then a few from Kansas. I know some of mine from Kansas was from kids coming to my area for the summer then leaving their bikes when they went back home.

So far around 1920, but the fact that it traveled 93 years to find me is impressive :lol:

I'm surprised Kingfish hasn't chimed in yet. But they don't come to him he hunts them down and drags them kicking and screaming back to the lab. :lol:

does China count? :lol:

Only if it came from a bike shop there. Otherwise it just came from the local Wal-mart. :lol:

I'm surprised they haven't started calling Huffy bikes by their Chinese name to throw us off. :lol:

The farthest a bike has been shipped to me the Felt El Guapo that "El Guapo" traded me.
I have a 48 Rudge Whitworth, so I guess it came from England.
The Bike Friday that I am currently selling on ebay came from Portland, OR originally.
