    Just moved to cork for the summer. Only live 2 miles from work and what to get a bit healthier. Can anyone think of a good place I could look for a cheap second hand bike?

    I have a Giant OCR4 race bike that I no longer use.
    The tires are flat but it's for sale.

    By flat do you mean punctured?
    Not a big deal if that's the case.
    How much are you looking for?

    weather is making a bike look like a bad idea, hope it improves.

    Sorry man, wasn't meant to sound like a dig at you! :o

    C.C. can be handy, and worth having a look at, but usually not the best deals...
