Bicycle Shopping!!

Thought it would be easy! We'd go look at a few and choose...should have known better! What type ? how many speeds ? on road? off road? price? ...it is like buying a car!!! We had decided we'd invest in good bikes and use them as part of our exercise regime and part of our "living green"! I work close enough to home that I could ride on nice days and my husband could ride his to the train station. He stopped driving & started training into Philadelphia over 2 years ago.

Did you know that you buy bicycles by components? And after you choose all the components there is a special helmet fitting, mirror adjustments and maintenance oils!

We spent 6 hours, 5 stores and came home more confused then when we left!!!

I really do think the best we saw for the money were "Performance Bikes" check out their website http://www.performancebikes.com/ and let me know what you think. We have not made that final purchase so any words of wisdom are greatly appreciated!
