I recently moved to Phoenix for work and should be here for 8 months.
I left Colorado, where I grew up, and last summer started MTN biking. I would also ride on the many wonderful bike trails around town during the off months. Arriving in Phoenix with it's many, many, many miles of paved roadways I have decided to but a road bike. To be honest I know nothing about the subject. I have been reading many of the articles in Google Groups to familiarize my self, I have been to a few bike shops, and have researched a bit on the Internet. I am obviously a novice road biker but have put many miles on a MTN bike. Does anyone have a good recommendation of a place in the Phoenix area to go and get a feel for what different varieties of bikes are offered? I am looking for places that can give me advise that won't be annoyed with my questioning. I feel that if I am ready to drop 1-2 thousand on a bike I should be at a place that is willing to go a little out of their way to makes sure I get what is right for me. If anyone has brand suggestions that would help as well. I just need a jumping off point. Thanks in advance. |
