    A good sales person creates the perception of need...but alas, that should typically follow the successful establishment of rapport...which clearly lacked here.

    But, back on topic...Congrats on the climb Grayson! That's a great feeling!

    Thanks everybody for the encouragement about my successful hill climb. I'm still feeling pretty awesome about that.
    As for the other thing, thank you Ana and RoadRaven for your words. And I'm kind of thinking that I might be making a trek to Pittsburgh (about 45 min by car) to talk to the bike shop gal out there. The one that I spoke to on the phone while searching for the elusive Surly Cross Check was very, very nice and I'm thinking maybe I'll try them. We'll see. Thanks again everyone.

    Congratulations on your achievement!

    Ignore the rude guy in the LBS. Do your thang on whatever bike you want to do it on and be proud!
