By the bye -- I probably should have mentioned that it's a 7-speed. And
the front gear says EXAGE 300 LX -- don't know if that means anything at
all, but it seems like it might be a somewhat important bit of information.
Thanks again!

Hi all,
Well, I've been in need of some form of transportation for a while
now, and money being scarce as it is, another car hasn't been
forthcoming, and depending on others for rides hither and yon has
gotten pretty tiresome. And, given the fact that I'm not in the best
physical condition of my life, I decided it wouldn't be such a bad
idea to get a bike.
Well, a friend gave me one tonight. Unfortunately, the last bicycle I
ever owned was when I was about 14 years old. Consequently I know
exactly jack shit about them these days. It seems like a pretty good
bike to me -- especially considering the price. Here's a couple of
photos of it.

I was actually looking for something more along the lines of a
mountain bike so I can access some of the tougher to reach places off
the back roads and such. But this seems like a pretty good road bike.
Is there any chance it would make reasonable trade-in material for
something more suitable for off-road use? If not, I may just go ahead
and buy a cheap, used off-road-type bike that's more suited for that
kind of use
Thanks for any info anyone can offer.
