First of all, of course you are going to like the sport. Second, have you asked to see if MOAB has any used bikes? Sometimes you can get a great deal and then move up later. You may also be able to rent a bike to try some weekend.

Keep checking the club's classified section to see if the right bike appears.

Also, check for a classified ads section on other club websites.

I found my first bike in the classifieds at the Harpeth Bicycle Club site.

Here's an earlier post from Mike Taglio for a used bike:
I'd give him a call to see what the size is.
Sounds like a winner if it's your size!!
Good Luck!
You're gonna love cycling!!
