Cody,
I was like you a few years ago. I was undecided on what bike to get since I had not ridden in many years. I suggest go get sized first and educate yourself onproper fit and types of bikes and the componentry of them and listen to the forum members here lol.This will save you the hassle and frustration. Then go look at the various bikes at a Dicks, Sports Authority and your local bike shops for the types of bikes and try them out. After trying out the type of bike you like, check on CL, Goodwill or garage sales. Be sure you take a tape measure to measure the bike I its your size. A lot of people do not know how to do that properly. Just be sure the used bike that you want checks out ok.
My 2 cents and good luck
