Hello From Seattle
Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum and looking for advice on what kind of bike I should get. It’s been 15 years or so since I last rode a bike, but I’ve been wanting to get one and now that the weather is starting to get nice again I’m getting a little more serious.
I’m mostly looking for something to ride around on packed gravel trails with my dog, but also maybe around the neighborhood, too. I have a six month old baby, so I probably won’t be spending a lot of time on the bike and I’m really just looking for something affordable that I can ride on the weekends.
if anyone has any recommendations on brands to look at or avoid, I’d love to hear them. I could also use some info on what type/size of bike might be a good fit, so if you have anything to share on that front I’d be very appreciative.
