If you think you might enjoy serious cycling, start with a cheap or used bike. If you still enjoy it a month later, then make the move towards getting a nice Cannondale, Trek, Lightspeed or some other high end machine. MAny serious “bike people” spemd more on accesssories for theri bicycles than they do their cars.
