There's one other shop but they hardly have any inventory of anything! Everyone I knows goes to this shop. I trust them. They did say if I like the Tuscany it would be a great bike! I must admit I actually felt like a cyclist on it!
I was trying to explain how much differently it rode. But, I couldn't come up with the words. Smoother - easier - that doesn't really describe it but it was absolutely a better ride...even on hills with wind!
There are just so many bikes out there that I'm afraid of buying one and hearing about another later!

So how are you going to find a different bike if there are none in your area to try? I had to drive about 5 hours to get my 'perfect' bike, because we have 2 very small shops that don't have my small size. So I tried out 3 different styles and got the one I liked best. You wouldn't have to buy it from the other shops just try the different kinds.
Also keep in mind, each person likes different styles. Just because I like my bike, doesn't mean you would like it as well! You just have to ride them, that is what everyone's advice to me has been, and it works!

Well, I think it's like any major decision--maybe not quite the same as getting married, but right up there with purchasing a house or a car or a computer. You make the best decision you can with the information you have, you don't sink your money into something that you just have a gut instinct "no" about, and then when you make your decision you live with it, because even if it isn't the absolutelybestmostperfect decision in the world (which it may or may not be, but you'll drive yourself crazy dithering and test riding every single bike in a 100 mile radius otherwise), it's still a pretty darn good one, one that you can live with and be happy about. And in the unlikely event that it turns out to be the wrong decision, well, it's just a bike--you can sell it and get another one.
But it doesn't sound like that'll happen--the Tuscany sounds like a fabulous bike!
