If you have a decent mountain bike, it will be a better choice than this. I wouldn't laugh, but it does say "Fred". (on the other hand, I know some Freds who can ride circles around me) I'd say to keep an eye on CL for a better choice. You could probaly find a decent 80's road bike for under $100. I check it pretty much every day myself, and being in the same area as you are, I'll be happy to alert you if I see a good deal.
