Hi there to all. Noobie here.
I hope you all can help me. I am trying to find a bicycle so I can ride around the neighborhood. More as a "staying active" thing. No competing, 50 miles anything like that. Max ride distance would be 20-25 miles or maybe a 2 hour ride. I have been looking at a Schwinn Trailway at Target, but i keep hearing "dont buy big store bikes". I saw the Specialized Crossroad Sport. Just outside my budget though.
What can you all recommend?? Target bike link below. Would like to keep budget at about $300?

Features needed (would like really):
Trigger shifter
adjustable handlbar stem/riser
road wheels
