  1. i have sold a few on craigslist.com for $40ea. i bought them for $25 and$15 and fixed them up a bit. they were older steel framed road bikes but were pretty nice, i used one for commuting (12 miles one way) and one for a couple triathlons. they were both 10 speeds. you really dont have to spend a ton on a bike to be able to ride. i am now commuting on an older schwinn 14 speed. a nice upgrade from my older 10 speeds. i found this one for $40, but it was thru a friend who gave me an exceptional deal. when buying a used bike make sure it fits you and that the gears work well. ride it and go thru all the gears and make sure it shifts properly. you could even take a used bike to a bike shop and have them tune it up, put new tires on it, brake pads and cables. for a little money you can get a good bike. shop around, be patient. good luck have fun!


  2. craigslist or you could ask around at bike shops for used bikes.  plenty of people bring their in as part of a trade.
