I forgot about that. I go to school in Pensacola, and I think I'm done with classes before 5:30. However, it gets darker there sooner because its closer to the time line. But its still something I...

That's what it seemed like when I called my local Felt dealers. One of them couldn't find any information about what Felt had in stock, and it seemed like all the 2010s were sold out or something.

Oh sorry. I wound up buying a Motobecane Mirage off of Craigslit for $45. Made it into a single speed. I figured that, for that cheap, I can just see how well a single speed would work out there. If...

I called up a local shop I haven't been to, and I was told they have both a Specialized Hardrock, and the 29er version. I'll head over there and try them out to see how I like them

I have looked at Craigslist, but I don't know much about bike maintenance and stuff. I think I would just feel more comfortable with a new bike, because I know it will be in the best condition. Which...

Thanks for the advice. I figure BikesDirect would either be very low quality, being brands that they only carry, or a great value. Like just a frame to hold really good components. Its something to...

There's no snow in Florida, so I don't need to worry about a "winter bike" unless there's something else I'm missing.

Well like I said, I'll call tomorrow to see if they can get one in a larger frame. I'm not exactly sure what size I need to be honest, but I'm guessing its a large.
