Yeah, I would definitely hit Craigslist and look for either a cruiser or hybrid (light mountain bike frame and handlebars with road-type tires and components) bicycle. Look for something rust-free and without frayed cables, etc., that looks like it has been kept lubricated. Avoid tires with dried out, cracked sidewalls.

Here's how to size a road bicycle:

Stand over the top tube (the one that goes from the seat to the handlebars) and lift the bicycle up levelly into your crotch. The tires should be 1-2" off the ground.
