He's a little farther down Main Street now, in the same building as United Insurance Agency--kind of diagonally across from the bowling alley.

Now that I mention it I need one of those lol Good luck post some pictures when you get it!
A standard kickstand won't even keep a 15 lb carbon fiber frame racing bike from being blown over in that wind. You need the double kickstand, or a support pole that you can hook onto the rear basket.
