Buying a Bike

Hello,

I want to buy a bike for commuting (5 miles one way) and doing some bike rides (30 miles) and I'm wondering if there are any tips for finding and buying a good commuting bicycle. What kind of bikes should I look out for and what should I do to inspect a used bike?

I've found this bike near me but I'm worried about the age of the bike and the wear on the frame.

I'm really new to all of this and the biking terminology is a little bit overwhelming. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Best,
Ryan
