Yup. A fool learns by experience. A wise man learns by other people's experience. In addition to the opportunity to see and test ride a number of different styles of recumbents, you also get to profit by the shop staff's experience regarding storage, transporting and working on (if you do your own work) the recumbent that you ultimately buy.
If you're considering spending $1,200 to $1,500, spend a few dollars more and be more sure of getting it right the first time.
