I am fortunate in having two LBS owned & operated as one man shows by gents even older than I.
As far as I can tell they aren't particularly friendly to anyone, they do what they do well a bit curmudgeonly.

One has more C&V knowledge & experience than can reasonably be expected anywhere and the other looks somewhat askance at my FG machine and AW bike as obsolete. OK w/ me, both are fine mechanics and cover opposite ends of cycling technology's time scale for me.
