I'll put in a plug for a TERRIFIC shop for women and men - Bikeway Source in Bedford (conviently located at the end of the Minuteman Bike Path).

Chris Li is a terrific guy and really knows his stuff. DH and I have known him for a long time, and everyone we have sent there has left happy.

He's also the only game in town for a good selection of higher-end x-country ski gear.
