I'm always a bit afraid when I go in there. Mind you, I'm always afraid when I go into any bike shop. I generally don't buy much stuff from bike shops though, it's too expensive and too limiting when you can go on the internet and get a wider range for better prices. As a result I tend to limit my bike shop purchases to emergencies, and they've supplied me with tyres on a couple of occasions when the tyre I was using has died on me. Most recently was when I was waiting for some gatorskins to arrive in the post, and they were able to sell me a second hand Bontrager hardcase for a fiver, which I thought was nice.
Out of interest, apart from that Velorution shop are there any other bike shops near there?
