Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Palm Springs/Palm Desert - Road Bike Rental

Anyone know where I can rent a decent quality road bike for a few days in the Palm Springs/Palm Desert area? Trying to find an alternative to Fedexing my Cervelo.

Thanks.

Kevin, do you know anything about the quality of the bikes the have for rentals. I will also be down in that area later on this year.

No, but I ran into the place when they were selling Kestrel Talons at closeout prices, and I know they have other all-carbon bikes, so it's not like it's a beach cruiser shop. Don't know what they have in the rental fleet, though; you'd have to contact them.
