Just don't buy a new bike. You will drop it. If you want me to help you find one for cheap, I can. I can probably help you out with the financing also if it is a cheap bike. You will need some riding gear also, PM me and I will help you locate some.
Thanks, Dave. Sorry, but I forgot all about calling you about this. I do know that I want a used bike mainly for the lesser price. I hear it isn't hard to finance a bike. I do have a Snell 95 full face helmet that I bought in 1999 and only wore for once a month for about an hour for two years. So maybe a total of no more than 30 hours tops. Would that helmet suffice or would I need to get a new one? Later, QD.
