Newbie in the Southeast

Hello! I'm a very new rider of less than 1 month. I'm almost 50, and haven't been on a bike for about 30 years. My family recently gave me a new bike, to supplement my other fitness activities. It's not fancy, but it's enough to try this again. I'm riding about 15 miles a week - 5 miles, three times - mostly on pretty flat terrain at a local park.

I'm trying to figure out the etiquette of biking. I'm sure my bike doesn't fit me properly. Will a local bike shop help me a fit a bike that wasn't purchased there, or would that be seen as an inappropriate request?

Any other advice would be more than welcomed.
