Antique bikes swapped, bought and sold at local event
SUMMIT TWP — Everything was there, except the baseball cards in the spokes, for a group of antique bicycle enthusiasts visiting a Butler County-hosted event.

“Most of what this hobby consists of is what people remember having as kids,” Rapp said.
