Great advice on looking more at the condition vs the age of the bike. Since they were only able to hold the bike until tomorrow, I will be taking it for a test ride tomorrow AM. This will be my first expensive bike so any specific things I should look for when evaluating the condition of the bike? I'm sure there are probably hundreds of things I should look for but any tips would be great!
As far as road conditions, lucky for me I live right next to a trail that runs from my house to where my job is approximately 10 miles away. Gotta love Iowa trails!
