big seats

I used to have a Trek hybrid that I loved -- somewhat nubby tires, so you can jump curbs but still efficient. And a big wide seat. Actually, you can add a comfy seat separately too.
They should let you try out the bikes in the parking lot, so just try a variety, and get it sized and adjusted right.
I'm thinking of getting another bike myself... Have fun!
(note: if you don't want yours stolen like mine, lock it up well! or keep inside your apt/house)
