Hi!

It's been about 7 years since I've ridden a bicycle on a regular basis. With gas prices going up, and my health in decline, I think it's a pretty good time to get back on.

I was wondering if I could get some advice on what type of bike is right for me. I will riding mostly around my city, about 5 to 10 miles a trip, and have about $400 to spend. I would prefer a new bike to keep maintenance to a minimum, but I am open to suggestions.

I recently visited a local bike shop and had the chance to ride out a few single speeds, and the ride was quite fun, which is why I decided to post in this forum.

Any help would be much appreciated!
