Hi Carrie,

I live in LA...that'd be Lower Aberdeen. It's just south of Pinehurst and Southern Pines. By way of reference, that's about 60 southwest of Raleigh, straddling US 1. Not terribly convenient to the Triad, or the Triangle for that matter. Although I do most of my shopping and such in Raleigh and Cary (the isn't a mall in my home town...or county for that matter!).

Thanks for the offer to help me find a good bike shop and such!

Take care,
Lara
