hi-bred
lite semi skinny tyres
more upright then a roadracer

or put up bars on a road bike
and a softer seat [gel] but not to wide

and buy used but a better quailty bike
look for good bits like quick releases on both wheels and the seat that helps to lock everything and to put the bike in a car eazy
alloy wheels cranks and hubs
most $500 to 1000 list new bikes
canbe had for a 100 or two on the used market
or even cheaper if needing a minor repair

+10 for craigslist but fleamarkets and garage sales are a winner too

BTW I got a like new all campi roadbike for 150 and fliped it for 300 to a friend as I am too old for roadbikes now
