South Louisiana Folks?

[pooks]

I was looking to see what bike shops there are in the Baton Rouge/New Orleans area. I noticed CAPITOL SCHWINN CYCLERY and wondered if it's a good one to send a friend to -- Schwinn? They have three different locations, it seems, and they seem to be near her so that might be the first one she'd try on her own. But Schwinn?

ETA: They seem to be a large chain, but I can't find a webpage, just yellowpages-type listings.

asked DH who was there for 4 months recently (Katrina)
and he said:

The only one I recall is over in Metairie:

There's Joes, but if I remember right, they were much more specific to cruisers and low-end stuff. The Bicycle Connection is geared more toward the road crowd and more high end stuff to choose from.
