Default Northern California's Biggest Bent Shop Emerges!!

[[ This message was both posted and mailed: see the "To," "Cc," and "Newsgroups" headers for
details. ]]

Rick Steele lost his day job as a system engineer (after 30 years in the industry) up in
Sacramento. And this is great news for recumbent riders because his shop, Gold Country Cyclery
http://www.tandems-recumbents.com , is now open five days a week, Tuesday thru Saturday. Having
recently doubled his store size to 2000 square feet and with a over half of it devoted to
recumbents, Gold Country has now become the Recumbent Giant of Northern California. And that
includes the entire San Francisco Bay Area!

So if you've been itching to try a Greenspeed, a Rans, Haase, Burley, Bachetta, Optima or a Haluzak,
with over 30 bents on the floor, there's a good chance Gold Country has what you are looking for!!

Ever wanted anything so bad U were willing to die for it? Really die? By moving thru clinical death
and reversing paralysis, *I saw God* when I answered that question.

While this original message might be a blatant commercial plug, I would like to offer a personal
endorsement for Rick and Gold Country Cyclery. I bought my Greenspeed there about 18 months ago. I
have had a couple small issues with the Greenspeed and have emailed Rick on each. He is always
anxious to provide follow-up information, even when it will obviously not profit him further. We
recently exchanged about a half-dozen emails on a 3sp shifter. Greenspeed provided me with a
replacement gratis. Rick was right there to provide information and smooth the process. Greenspeed
and Gold Country Cyclery are both great firms with whom to do business.

Hi Tom,
It's a company in Kansas that builds kit planes and a pretty comprehesive line of recumbents.
