Anyone in Little Rock, Arkansas...?
I will be traveling to LR for work tomorrow and staying until Friday. Unfortunately i don't have a hard case for my trusty steed and was wondering if anyone knows where i might be able to rent a decent bike in N. LR?? Or... anybody have a "B-bike" they would be willing to loan or rent out? I know that sounds crazy, but i'm desperate so i thought i would just throw it out here on BF and someone might understand from being in a similar situation before.

Amazingly, competitive cyclist is in Little Rock, AR... I kinda doubt they have loaner bikes, but I'm sure if you were to give them a call and ask them about the area, they'd be more than happy to help out.

Not to mention the Orbea-USA is in North Little Rock. Not that they have any loaner bikes either, but you could maybe take a tour. Those are some bad a$$ bikes. I love the frames.

Thats what their website says. I am in love with the Orbea Orca, but my pocketbook isnt. If I get an Orbea, its prob gonna be the Onix. Same hand painted orange color as the Orca.

If you are a big beer drinker...there is a good liquor store at the same exit as the mall (other side of the interstate) that has a great selection. Cant remember the name, but it has a great selection. My little bro used to live in LR, and I visited on occasion.

I've heard nothing but good things about the guys @ CC. Seems to me that their customer service is top-notch.
