I appreciate all the suggestions. I will look at all of them in detail later.
Have been looking at Craigslist (found a few I'd like to have!) but as I said, without any recommendations, I didn't really know what I was looking at! haha He worked hard this summer (and better be getting an after-school job soon!) and made some good money, so he's gonna buy something.
I'm sure we will talk about it tonight, will let you all know...
Thanks again for some starting ideas.
Hey Bot, I just noticed the pink and purple on that bike. Sweet!
