Ha. Found a lot of nice bikes at BikeWorks today.

Trek singletrack 930 white 15" $55
Schwinn moab black 17" $75
GT Tequesta grey 16" $80
Trek 930 black 16" $65
Cannondale Caffine F3 17" $85 (Shimano LX)
KHS Crost grey/black 15" $60
Bianchi Lynx yellow 16" $75

Looked them all up on BikePedia, and the Cannodale looks to be the best.

Careful with the Cannondale. Make sure the fork is in good condition. Cannondale used their own design such as the lefty and the Head Shock. Nothing wrong with them, but if they need repair you usually have to go to a Cannondale dealer and repair can be pricey. So check out the bike carefully. Otherwise, I'd agree that looks like a good choice.
