A bike shop that won't let customers test ride their bicycles is a bike shop that's not worth bothering with.

Any good bike shop will let you ride as many bikes as you want--at the very least around the parking lot, and possibly let you take them out for a couple hours.

I'd avoid the K-Mart bikes like the plague, Elgin. The cheapest bike you can find at your local bike shop is going to be better than anything K-Mart sells.
