Bicycle Dreams is the powerful true story of the Race Across America, a 3000-mile bicycle race that challenges riders to cross the country in just ten days. They must overcome searing desert heat, agonizing mountain climbs, and endless stretches of open road, all while battling extreme exhaustion and sleep deprivation. But what begins as the adventure of a lifetime is transformed in an instant whe…
I haven’t bought a bike in, well…ever. Not since I was a kid have I had a bike and now my wife wants us to start going on bike rides as a way of getting out and exercising more. I’m on board with that.
So basically I need advice on bikes that are fairly cheap that will give us the most bang for our buck. We don’t want to spend very much because quite frankly, it isn’t as if we’re going to be doing tricks with the bike, going on rough trails or going up mountains. We’ll be mostly going around town and maybe some trails in the country. Nothing really adventurous.
It doesn’t matter to me where the bike comes from as long as it’ll probably hold up decently well to light riding and perhaps last a couple years at least. That’s all.
Under 200 bucks would be wonderful. Again, I realize I won’t be winning the Tour de France…I just want the most reliable and best I can get for cheap.
Thanks!
Fit is First. Get that right or you’ll never be comfortable on the bike. Go to your local bike shop for advice on this. Don’t have to buy anything there. Just look, try out, ask questions. You might, probably will, need them later for repairs and adjustments.
Check out the link for hybrid/comfort bikes close to your price range. Forge at Target seems to make pretty good bikes for the money. Avoid WM, KMart, etc.

Liberty, equality, and fraternity are all well and good, a champion of French culture once remarked. But, he continued, what made France truly superior to its neighbors was the French passion for wine, which “contributed to the French race by giving it wit, gaiety, and good taste, qualities which set it profoundly apart from people who drink a lot of beer.” The commentator may have had a p…
Why We RideFrom the time we first wobble away from Mom or Dad on two wheels, we’re hooked. The mobility, the freedom that the bicycle brings is our first taste of independence. For many, that feeling persists, and bicycling becomes a lifelong love.
