After hoping from one site to another in search of a ‘not-so-expensive-but-decent’ bike for about a month, I finally managed to get a 24-speed mountain bike from www.melbourne.gumtree.com.au. All of AU$90, it is quite good and is in perfect operational order.
My first ride was not so long as I felt like taking a break after every 10 minutes which was partly due to the fact that I have not been upto much recently and partly because of the roads in Melbourne going up and down hill.
This Monday onwards I will ride to work rather than taking Connex trains which have most recently been marred due to break failure incidence.
Just another reason to start riding to work.
