Hey Ladies/Gents.
I am new & need HELP. I don't know where to post this, but figure: "I live in Colorado, so Coloradans can help me choose a bike."
I have not cycle (since 12-13 years old), but not athletically challenge. I do a lot of hiking, fishing, running, blading, & weight training (4-6 days a week). I'm looking for a different kind of challenge & work-out.
*I would like to know what kind of Bike would be best for the conditions I will be riding them in? To give you an idea where I will be riding. I will be riding in Waterton Canyon, Canyon Road in Boulder, in or around Copper Mountain-Frisco, & of course Broomfield area (Standley Lake).
*What kind of bike (Mtn Bike or Road Bike) & brand? What all will I need?
*Price Range- Anything below $500 & if it's in the $250 even better. (some of you might be laughing @ my budget, but I've seen the price tag on some of those bikes- OUCH!)
Thank you in advance-
Tony M.
