In my opinion you can't go wrong with a used Klein. With the economy the way it is now would be a good time. Check out Craig's list.
If you plan to ride more than an hour at a time:
You'll also need shoes for clipless pedals, water bottles, wicking material and bike shorts, learn about electrolytes and recovery from longer rides, Cytomax, a helmut (a must) gloves...check out some of the biking magazines because they will really help educate you on everything. A wireless computer (under $100) and a heart rate monitor are also worth it.
