Wanting bike for Slow Way South
Hi there,
I'm new to the forum but have been reading for a while. I've got my license 18 months ago but haven't touched a bike since then. I'm planning to get a bike in Scotland and ride all the way to Spain. I have a few questions that maybe someone has got the answer to:
Which bike should/could I get considering the following restrictions:
- got restricted license
- inexperience rider
- based in Scotland
- skint (£500 max for bike, hopefully under £200)
- haven't got a clue about maintenance (plan to do a course)
- don't intend to go off-road, but would prefer to avoid highways.
- no need for speed
- not fussy about design or age
- short rider (165)
I know they look like many restrictions... It would also help to find the bike near me, so if there is any scottish reader with and old small bike sleeping in their garage...
thank you very much
