Bike rental in Virginia Beach, VA.
I thought about where to put this for the longest time, and it just seems like General fits more than anything else...possibly Road, but I don't know.
Anyway, looking for a nice place in Virginia Beach, VA to rent a road bike. I'd like to get on something road-endurance or road-race. Such as a Roubaix or even Emonda, or an equivalent...even a cross bike would be ok with 32's, etc.
I googled and there seems like there's a few places to choose from, but a lot of the reviews are sketchy and seem to indicate having to return bikes multiple times to get one that works, dealing with people that don't speak english, etc. I don't want some family-oriented beach cruiser with knobby tires.
Thanks.

Talk to the guys at Conte's. I don't think that they do rentals but they're one of the best LBS in the area and would probably be able to figure something out for you in the area.

Everyone I have talked to has had the opposite of a positive experience at Conte's. I believe Fat Frog's would be a better choice.
