Here ya go. It's stickied along with nearly a dozen other threads at the top of the C&V main page.

Two cents but less in value...

You already have great input here. Just adding one thing...

Do you wish to buy to ride, or buy to restore and collect (ask about N+1)?

If you are wanting to tinker with older bikes then getting a fixer upper Schwinn should be pretty cheap (under $100).

If you are wanting ready to ride, there is a bunch of better options at $200 I would think.
