Trail was intended to mean more a defined bike path for commuters.

The most well-known and used bike stores where I've lived and biked in Toronto (14 yrs.), Vancouver (8 yrs.) and Calgary are all with half km. or right along a marked bike route. Sure you get people who browse, look around and won't buy..but you will also get more people who will buy and prefer safety/convenience of cycling on bike paths, bike lanes, instead of far flung mall locations with no safe cycling access.
Ah, I misunderstood. I rarely drive anywhere, so the idea of a store that doesn't have access for a bike just didn't cross my radar screen.

I agree on the bikeability of the store, but I'd like transit access, and (outside of big cities) some sort of parking too, for those people who do drive.
