Hi Kyle
You'll need to set a value for :sort_by as well - for example:
client.sort_by = '@geodist ASC, @weight DESC'
I'm pretty sure this is what's causing the error. That said, you shouldn't need
to use the expression sorting mode - but you do need a reference to @geodist in
your sorting or filters for geo searching to come into play. So alternatively,
you can use the :extended sort mode (not sure if there's going to be any
noticeable speed difference between that and :expr though).
