Manchester England ?'s
I am studying abroad at the university of manchester in the fall.
Should I consider finding a bike while I am going to school there?
roads friendly?
anything useful to know?
places to eat, see, ride?
tips?
anyone willing to rent or sell a cheap a beater for fall semester?
and do I have to like soccer while im there?

You have to like football, not soccer, and more specifically manchester city, not manchester united (if you're actually living in manchester that is).

I live about 30 miles north of Manchester.
How tall are you?
Road or MTB. which are you looking for, I have a couple of hack hardtails lying around.
NO fixie though.
Manchester roads friendly? No way, just like every other city.

Definitely go and catch one of the Revolutions at Manchester Velodrome. The racing is insane.
