Kudos to Beth Hamon and City Bikes in Portland, Oregon

I searched for weeks to find a pair of Carradice Kendal panniers. I called
every Carradice dealer in the US---nobody had them. I contacted
Carradice---they didn't have any in stock and were going to make some "in a
few weeks". Frustrating. I bought a Carradice Barley saddlebag from
http://www.citybikes.coop a few months ago. Early in my search I contacted
City Bikes and was told no Kendals in stock. I saw a posting from Beth Hamon
in the Boblist, so I thought I'd try her at City Bikes again. Sure
enough---there was a pair in stock which they'd been holding for a customer
who never came back to buy them. Beth gave me an excellent price, shipped
them quickly and affordably, and provided me with the only available pair of
Carradice Kendal panniers in the free world. Excellent shop. Excellent
service. It's just a shame I don't live in Portland.
