Hi, I would like to start cycling with the view to eventually doing duathlons. I don't however own a bike at the moment and I'm unsure about what kind of bike to get. I really just want to get a cheap bike to try some cycling for the next few months and then if I get serious about it I can get myself a better bike.
I'm willing to pay up to £150 at the moment but don't know if I should just get a cheap mountain bike or a cheap road bike. Halfords and Tesco have both type of bikes for under £150 at the moment and while I know they won't be up to much long term, would they be any good short term? I've also tried places like ebay and gumtree but can find nothing suitable nearby.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
