Re: [RBW] Test Ride Opportunities in the Midwest (Madison, WI)

[Richard Rose]

For me it has been a leap of faith. Although, I was at least able to ride my Clem for about 3 minutes on a very cold January morning. That was all I needed. And after spending a full year with it I had few doubts regarding my Gus purchase. Perhaps you can find someone here that is close enough that you can get a test ride in. I know I would be able to accommodate that but I am in Toledo, Ohio.

Thing is, I still have never ridden one, and it seems like quite a big move (for me, at least) to place an order without riding around a bit first. Is there anywhere to go in Southern WI to test a bike out? Dealer shops in Chicago or the Twin Cities that have demo bikes? I've been mainly looking at the Clem Smith Jr. Has anyone else gotten an opportunity to test a certain model prior to buying, or is a leap of faith the usual procedure? Would love to hear of others' experiences. -Camden -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
