Thank you to all the list members for the recommendations on bike shops in the San Francisco bay area. There was a mishap with the rental car and I was only able to make it to American Cyclery. The guys were very friendly there and they had some sweet stuff there as well, including two Oscar Wastyn bicycles they were enthusiastic about showing me after finding out I was from chicago. I didn't get to do any riding as it rained constantly the 3rd day into our trip. Still a good time, we even made it for lion feeding time at the zoo. I was satisfied with my trip after I got to see a tiger bite the head off of a rabbit.
I know it's been a while since I got back so excuse the lateness of my thank you. A few days later some work began on my home and I'm sure most of you know what that headache is like.
I'll be posting again later today, I need some opinions on some projects I picked up. I even have a nice item for trade I know alot of you will be interested in.
