The Devils Gear is a good shop that caters to commuters and utility cyclists. Not overly Riv-ish but better than most.

Depending how far afield you want to go, a trip to JP Weigle's shop in Lyme, CT would probably be very interesting.
I think you need to call ahead to arrange an "audience." :)

CT isn't very Riv-ish, for reason unknown. I often think Z-man and I have the only Rivs in the state!

There's about to be one more! I just took a job at a new start up microbrewery in Bloomfield so my Allrounder and I are about to head down to the Nutmeg state.

I've explored lots of the greater Boston area on her and look forward to aimless wanderings along the back roads of CT!

Cheers- Mike from S. Boston Mass, soon to be somewhere in the greater Hartford area...

To Mike from S. Boston who's soon to be somewhere in the greater Hartford area:

email me off-list and I can give you ideas for rides in the Bloomfield area and parts further on.  Just read a short article about the start-up in Bloomfield.  Looking forward to opening night.  (Are you the same Mike who rides the BMW?)
