What kind of bike are you looking for? I'm just moving to the Seattle area from Spokane, but I've found that Bicylcles West on Andover West down by Southcenter to have a friendly staff and reasonably priced bikes. Greg's Greenlake in Bellvue isn't bad - good selection at market prices and the staff was helpful. I've also hit Supergo in the U district but I really wasn't looking at bike prices on that visit. They did have an impressive selection, though. By the way, if you know some good cycling routes in the Kent/Covington area, clue me in. I've seen the trail maps and am looking forward to trying some of them out, but is there a safe place around here to ride on the road?
