My husband would need one too... same type as me and he's about 5'9'' and hasn't ridden in probably 30 years.
We are planning to ride this summer! Ask anything else if you need more info (except my weight!  LOL) |
Last yr I started riding bikes too and it had been 20 yrs for me also. You may want to start by riding on sidewalks and streets first. Trail riding is hard I still cant do it and Ive been back riding for a yr. Theres all kinds of tree stumps and pot holes in th e trail that make riding on it hard. Also the type of bike youll want for trail riding is a mountain bike what ever you do dont try it with a street bike you need the thick tires of a mountain bike I made that mistake. You can ride mountain bikes on the street but I dont like to I need a thinner tire for street riding. Once you get into bikes it gets expensive because every bike is different and made for different th ings so you us ually have more t han one. There are 3 of us and we have 6 bikes and Im getting ready to buy a better quality one.
