Konnichiwa ^____^
Hey future bike buddies, I've been lurking for a couple of days reading threads here and there and I've finally decided to take the plunge and register. so hi!
Currently a (proud?) owner of a clunker I've had since before my memory failed me. But that's an extremely rough guess-timate. Actually is a Diamondback Sorrento Sport for god knows when. Currently a commuter (since my wife and I have one car and we are expecting a daughter in November, i think she has dibs on it)
Honestly what I really want is a roadbike but the funds just aren't there right now. anyways hello again people and I'll leave you a picture of my hoopdie. it needs a new chain badly and for some reason i hate the paint on it (doesn't help that it had hella overspray from when the apartments decided to repaint the building) really considering wrapping it in some awesome electrical tape @___@.

Welcome to Bike Forums.
Look on Craiglist.
I found my first road bike for $15.
Your Diamondback looks good to me.
Have fun and the road.

Thank you for the welcome! I've been scouring craigslist and so far no luck. Lowest I've found for anything was around 200, at least for something that didn't look like it's been crushed numerous times.
