I order on-line too for many items. However we all should try and
support our various local bike shops as they may go the way of many
newspaper dailies, out of business or on-line only. And if our LBS's
go out of business then there's less of them to support our events
like the GCC festival, Gone Riding, Tour de Felasco and the like.

Best,
Beth Knizer
