Chris and Steve are not women but I have nominated them for honorary women status and all the perks entitled to thereof because they treat women riders well!!!
I second that! They are right off the freeway, in case anyone thinks San Leandro means... I'll never find it. I now feel completely spoiled and wouldn't consider getting a bike anywhere else. But then they're only a half-hour away from me.

My limited experience revealed the following.
Pacific Bicycle is a big store in SF. They carry a good range of bikes. However, this is the store that sold me a bike that was too small for me. Who knows why this happened, but buyer beware.

Another store that has good fitting experience is Cycle Sports in Oakland. Again, they're close to the freeway, and street parking is generally available. Very nice people.
