I had once told myself I would never darken the door of an RBM ever again after basically being flat out insulted when looking at wheels. The problem was I had a gift certificate to redeem, Lil.

I visited the Frisco store on a recommendation from Lotek and had great service. If it were closer it would be my primary LBS. I have friends in Frisco so now every time I know I'm headed over there, I drop in.

The Richardson store is the source of my earlier woes, but to be honest it's pretty hard to stay out of there. I have found Jack to be an outstanding guy and I look for him every chance I get. My last few visits have been much better than than in previous visits, but I was left scratching my head when I was unable to get a Campy skewer a couple of weeks ago.

It's also hard to argue about their support of the local cycling community. They go all out to support just about any ride or cause that pops up. Heck, I even joined Team RBM a couple of weeks ago, and I think the thermometer in he!! dropped down to around 31 degrees for at least a minute or two.

I'm on a self limited visit count right now though. With year end closeouts on new bikes, I need to stay as far from every LBS as possible.
