Hey there everyone!

Im new here. I need some help getting a bike. I had one when I was like 10 now im 20 and would like to get one again.

I was looking around the stores and am completely lost. I have one that I was looking at that seemed nice but know that this would be the place to come and make sure.

A little background info.

Im 20, around 6'2, weigh around 250 and was going to use the bike as a leisure activity. ( And hopefully loose some weight ) I would be using it on the sidewalks and a couple of paved trails near me that have been set up over the years.

I was looking at the Columbia Northway FE. Its the 18 inch one with the larger seat. It has 26 inch wheels. It seems like a nice bike but im not 100% sure. I was going to get it at Sports Authority for 279.99 plus tax. ( Unless anyone else knows a better place! )

Is this a good bike? Is this a good bike for what I'm looking to do? Etc?

I hope that I posted this in the right place and appreciate any help!

Thanks!
