Today is the day I go pick up my bike. I don't know where, price range is between 150-250$ anyone have any ideas in portland where to find the right bike. I had a friend, who does not ride, tell me Wal Mart I did find that funny.
even though it's still winter in portland it's always fun to ride.

Thanks for the veloroutes website, Mimi! I just figured out that the hill at the end of my commute is 13% grade. I've been wondering about that for a long time.

Ok, I was playing with veloroutes some more and now it says the big hill at the end of my commute has a section that is 17%! No wonder it's so hard!

not WALMART!!!
bperry86 walmart is the last place you should buy a bike let alone anything eles. i would try out craigslist-there seems to always be good used bikes on there each time i get on.
good luck and happy times ahead.
