1. what's the best way to measure one's sit bones? Before I even start shopping for a new saddle, I need to figure out what size I need. Plus, I'm also wanting to gauge the various LBS around to see if they actually are knowledgeable or simply clueless.

2. Any good online sites for bicycle maintenance? Or just get a book from Amazon? Will be working on my bike and the kid's cheap X-mart mtb wannabe's...

3. Any ideas on a decent, inexpensive repair stand?

Thanks in advance
