New bike! (Update)

I posted here a couple days ago asking if I should buy a genesis and y'all overwhelmingly said no lol. I ended up stumbling upon a local non-profit instead. They take donated bikes and revamp them, then they sell or donate them. They've donated over 12,000 bikes to those who can't afford them themselves!

The volunteers were absolutely lovely, helped me pick out a bike that was the right size, fit my needs, and fit my budget. They installed a kickstand and fit the bike to my size.

I ended up paying $160 for this Trek 7.6fx. It works perfectly and is super comfortable to ride. No rust or damage anywhere. It has a Bontrager fork, handlebar, and wheels. No disc brakes, but I'm alright with that.

I'm really happy about this bike 🙂 I can't wait to get back to riding once I finally get over the flu.
