I have called every shop in driving distance that I can find, and no one has either bike in a size that I can test ride. The LBS I am working with, however, is a Jamis dealer - as well as dealing in Surleys and they have sold/fit quite a few Long Haul Truckers AND Auroras. I am hoping this means that they know the two bikes well enough that we can determine which is the better fit between the two. I don't know enough about the differences in touring geometry to be able to tell anything outside of the top tube length...
