Visited 5 LBSs, 3 of these i visited frequently and got to know various staff and listen in on how they treated other customers.

Checked bikes these 3 stock both in person and on line - read many reviews. Narrowed bikes to 2. Mad mind up already which one I was likely to buy pending good test ride. Made appointment for test ride, rode 20 mins, bought bike, picked up later in day, rode home.

So to answer your question: test rode one bike, bought on same day, rode home same day.
