It is near the end of the biking season and bike shops may have some left over 2002 to get rid of. This means prices drop...The bike shop will help you find a bike in your size, budget, and take into consideration the type of riding you want to do.
Keep asking them questions at the bike shop-they are there to help you. If they don't take the time to help you-go elsewhere! I have heard good things about Wheelworks in Belmont.
For a road bike-make sure it has at least a cromoly fork,aluminum forks on a road bike hurt! If you can afford to, get a bike w/a carbon fork. It softens the ride quite a bit!
Road bikes are pricey, if they are out of your budget-go with either a hybrid or a mountain bike w/slick tires.
