Thanks everyone! I'm really excited about riding more.

Jennifer - where did you go for your bike? There's a shop in Rome, and one on the south side of Chattanooga in Ringgold, and those are the only 2 I know. Bob's in Rome didn't have much last time I was there (3 road bikes!) but the one in Ringgold has lots they need to get rid of - apparently the owners have a friend with another store, the owner of the other store had a bad accident and the owners of this store bought his inventory to help him out.

I'm further south than both of you. below Carrollton. There's a nice shop in Carrollton I visit(didn't get bike there) Perpetual Motion Bicycles Inc on Maple St. Off hwy 27 towards Univ of West Ga. I got my bikes in Lagrange at Goldens Bikes. I've bought 3 there, traded the first for a third. hybrid to mtn bike last month. My roadie came from there as well. They treat me well. So between me and KB and even some Atlanta shops, you have lots of choices. Jenn

p.s. there's a fair amount of Ga people here on TE now- lots more than there used to be
