[Highland Park] Raleigh 17" Hybrid Bike for Sale
by caroline.home＠att.net 29 Apr '09

29 Apr '09

I am selling my 2002 17" Raleigh C40 hybrid bicycle. It is in excellent condition and has always been kept indoors. I replaced it last year with a lighter bike, but had it tuned up at the Trek store prior to that. The Raleigh is sturdy; it does well on trails and is good for using with childseats or pulling trailers. Bike rack included as shown. Asking $100. Caroline

[Highland Park] free high chair
by Joan Soulliere 28 Apr '09

28 Apr '09

I have a high chair to pass on. This one is not appropriate for infants as it does not have straps, only the plastic crotch catch. I got it for free from the list and want to continue passing it along. It is a Graco with a nice big easy to clean tray, a washable seat cover and it folds. Please email me if you would like it.
