suggestions for buying a bike (beginner)
I can honestly say that I have never owned a good bike that was even close to being road-worthy. I do own a bicycle and ride it around the city but I've been hit twice in the past three months, (pretty low speed colisions where the car hit me) so I figured that the reason that I get hit on my bicycle is because I am A: on the sidewalk because it's a high speed street and B: cannot gain enough speed on the bicycle to feel safe on the streets of this metro area. I have decided to buy a (cheap) motorcycle to fix these problems. I have a good idea of what I should look for, but none of these ideas are really from experince. What kind of bike do you think will suit a beginner in a metro area well? I appreiciate the advice!!
