Thinking of Buying A New Bike?

Thinking of buying a new bicycle?  One of your first choices, and not necessarily an easy one, will be where to shop.  It can be a challenge because there are a myriad of stores that carry two-wheelers, from specialty retailers, to giant department stores, to backyard garage operations.

Where you buy, however, has everything to do with what you get.  You see, bicycles aren't like toasters or suitcases.  Bikes are shipped in boxes and they must be assembled and tuned.

There are many types, too, and you should never buy until you've figured out which is right for you.  Measurements and adjustments are required to ensure the frame is the correct size and that the seat and handlebars are properly positioned.  And, every new bicycle will need a minor tune-up after several weeks of use.

What's more, modern road and mountain bikes can travel at high speeds and carry you over-demanding terrain where the machine's materials and construction get tested.  A quality two-wheeler, carefully assembled and fit to you, will be the safest, most durable and fun bicycle to ride. 

Riders Leaving From B&B Bicycle for Saturday Bike Ride 

Rides require, at minimum, an approp-riate road bike in good working order, water, and a helmet.  We suggest a spare tube and energy food as well.  Many rides are held subject to weather.

Weekly Ride is held from B&B Bicycle Shop in Cedar Hill every Saturday.  Meet & 8:30 and leave a 9:00 am.

28-32 miles 16-19 mph pace, no drop ride.  We cruise to the hills together, but you can ride at your own pace to the top, regroup and move on.  Featured hills are Mt. Creek Pkwy, Camp Wisdom and we vary the last hill or two each weekend.  No rain, no fog. _________________________________
