You're right on there - I have seen decent old bikes for reasonable prices in the areas just outside NYC; I was trying to get to LI to look at a very nice Nishiki a few weeks back and just could not manage it (no car, would have involved trains, cabs and walking for miles).
It's complicated, I really don't want a new bike at all, I'd love to just commute with whatever I have, but the lock up makes it tough to have your cake and eat it too.
