Hi there...!

I need help buying a bicycle. I am in my early 20's but my moron parents never taught me how to ride a bike. My work is not far from my home and I hate cars and the financial burden they bring.

A bicycle is the perfect investment for me. Can you tell me what bike to buy then? I want a good bike that I can ride in the weekends in the park as well.

There is a lot of grass behind my home where I can practice so I am sure I will learn how to ride a bike fast. Aside from that, I just need a recommendation to buy a bike. Any good brands out there? I have $800 to spend but I am sure a decent bike that will last me many many years will cost WAY LESS than that!!

Of course, I will buy some safety gear as well.

So help me out please!

I agree with the previous two posters. Your budget is just right for getting a quality bicycle, and that trek would be a perfect bike to get started on. I say purchase the bike shop rather then the bike - meaning buy a bike from the shop you feel most comfortable with- it makes a big difference.
