Or maybe I should take it to a bike shop? I noticed that some of you mentioned the freewheel being bad, but it doesn't seem like that's the problem. I made a video out of it. Let me know if you want photos of specific things.

Some background: I own a Trek 820 that I got in the '90s and don't know much about bikes. I have basic tools, but nothing specific to bikes. I use this bike to go from the parking lot to my desk everyday. It's about a 1.1 mile ride.
