Hi all, I passed my exams last friday, and I can pick up my license on Tuesday. Now all that's left is buying a bike. What's your best advise for buying on the second hand market? I have no idea how to judge if a bike is worth its pricetag. Wat are things to look for? Your expertise would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds pefectly resonable, big touring/adv bikes are probably the most pampered type out there. Budget sounds reasonable too, post pics when you find it!

    Will do! I called the local dealer today, they're willing to let me testdrive a few different types of bike, to figure out what I like most. And I do like the idea of having their warranty even if they're a little bit more expensive than the non-comercial second hand market..
