Bike shop/bike type recommendations

In article said:

I am interested in getting in to some biking. It would mainly be on paved tracks, or roads, but
could be a little on dirt walking trails.

What I am looking for are recommend bike stores, and also models of bikes that I can research
more, and possibly test ride.

I live in the Valley Forge area of Pennsylvania.

I am 6'4 and 275lbs, with a 32" inside leg. Despite the mass I am quite active, playing soccer
four times a week, dabbling in some racquetball and tennis when not playing soccer.

Thanks in advance

Steve

Valley Forge is a big area.

A bit out of the way, but also a good knowledgeable store with *excellent* prices is Shirk's
Bicycles just west of Churchtown off of Route 23:

The Bicycle Club of Philadelphia (BCP) web site lists 78 bike shops in the Philadlephia region
(phillybikeclub.orgbike shops.htmlOpen ↗), so there are plenty to choose from.
