Yeah, you will see lots of recommendations for Proteus. I'm shopping there right now (well not RIGHT now) for a new bike that I can use to run to the store (which I seem to do daily and would love to not burn my car's gas but burn my body's fuel instead) and maybe take on the twopath and such. Right away they were like - we know you have a nice road bike you ride, you probably aren't looking to spend a lot, right? Which was great. I'm easily influenced
so I can be talked into upgrading far to quickly.
Others will chime in with some other stores they really like, you definitely have some options in the area. But I've always been pleased with Proteus. Good luck and let us all live vicariously through your purchase.
You too can help me fight cancer, and get a lovely cookbook for your very own! My team's cookbook is for sale Click here to order. Proceeds go to our team's fundraising for the Philly Livestrong Challenge!

If you're in Baltimore proper, Joe's Bikes.
I am a big fan of Proteus and will make the drive to College Park (I'm in Arlington).

I always seem to catch these threads after someone else says Proteus. So, what she said.
