Brisbane North bike shop for a beginner

[fergy1987]

So I recently got back into cycling and am trying to increase my knowledge. So basically I spend a lot of time on here asking opinions and questions which although may seem tedious and dumb i always receive helpful responses.
My issue is when I go to a bike shop and ask questions or try and learn things about how to look after and do adjustments on my bike after they have serviced it I always feel like the guy in the shop thinks I am an idiot. The simple question about how to adjust something for it to be met with, you bring it here and we do it makes it hard to remain enthusiastic about cycling.
I get that these guys are trying to make a living and basically I'm searching for free information but I hear your stories of the relationships you have with the local bike shop and how they teach you the basics and its actually a great place to just visit and wonder what I am doing wrong.
Sure I am not showing up with a 5000 dollar bike looking to buy all the best new parts but still, think I should be treated like the rest because we all start somewhere.
Anyways, can anyone suggest a Brisbane north side bike shop where I might be able to pick up a few tips and pointers about bikes for a beginner.
End of rant!

99 bikes offer instructional classes if you're in there club. Although I dont know how they work as I've only looked at the pamphlets. But for $5 joining its probably worth looking into

Ridgeway cycles in Stafford are a good option. Old school bike shop that have been there for generations and I have always found them helpful and willing to assist, and best of all zero attitude. They're one of the few shops I actually enjoying giving my hard earned $$ to.

Ridgeways are good. Especially if you like a chat.
