So i have been riding around lately and i dont know if this is a clydesdale thing or a new bike thing but on my first ride out about half way thru my chain started slipping whenever i went to the 2nd crank

i took it to the lbs and supposedly it was fixed but then after todays ride of only 9 miles sure enough useing the 3rd gear on downhills wasnt working right at all and then halway thru the ride switching from 1st gear for uphills back down to 2 on flat ground started slipping away again and clunking and crunching.

what is the deal? they told me that a new bike will settle in but ive put 20 miles on it so far.
can i adjust this myself or is it something i have to take it in their for every time.

i plan on going on my first longer trail this weekend ~20 miles and i dont want my chain going nuts on me halway thru.
please let me know what you think.

thanks!
