I love REI don't get me wrong.. but there are all these great LBS's ...
(Local Bike Shops) there are the three I recommended for starters and MORE..
any of them will let you take a bike out for an hour or so...

for fit, i really recommend you go to R & E or Gregg's or Samm. They will charge you.
but it's worth it.
Hi mimitabby,

I looked at Gregg's website. A basic fit is $150!!!?? What the heck do they do for $150???
