     Mt. Washington Bike Shop rents All Terrain Bikes. They are at
     5813 Falls Road at Kelly Ave. This is about 5-6 mi. north of 
     the city. Call 323-2788.

     Two good used bookstores are 
            Kelmscott Book Shop
            32 W. 25th St.  235-6810
              
            Second Story Books     
            3322 Greenmount Ave. (above 33rd st.)  467-4344

      Both have good selections, and Second Story does have a selection
      of computer books.

    Also add Tales from the White Hart about a block north of Second Story
books which has a downstairs full of all new and recent SF including a
lot of british stuff that most stores don't carry, and an upstairs full
of used stuff.  By 12 get one free.
   Just a satisfied customer (except when the Visa bill comes).
   In fact that whole area is full of book stores.  The owners will be glad
to point you to more after you have bought all you want there.
