Bicycles

Shocking disclaimer: I never learned how to ride a bike. Now that I'm olderish and working on my cardio a lot more, I want to learn how to ride. The only problem is that I'm like 330lbs, and most bikes don't seem to be made for weight like this. Does anyone have any suggestions on a style of bike that won't break my poor college student budget?

Thank you! I'm in the middle of nowhere so bike share isn't an option but I'll keep everything else in mind

Update: I bought a bike from WalMart. Aside from the seat, it was fine today while I tried to learn to ride.

Also, to the last poster: I lived in the UK for 5 months, and I miss the spelling differences. Thank you for tyres. (and breadcakes)

Everything ended up being cool. Which was surprising because it was a clearance bike from Walmart. But yeah everything went well and I highly encourage everyone to not be afraid! smiley
