Go directly to a local bike shop. Get a bike that fits. You won't need to spend thousands. You will spend, probably, hundreds (I saw nice beginner bikes starting at around $300 yesterday) on a bike that fits, feels good, fits, meets your needs, fits, looks good, fits, and that ultimately you will ride MORE because of these things. Trust me--it is soooooooo worth the extra investment.
