Hi - This post is probably rather late to be effective in the near term - but hopefully will eventually help achieve our final objective.
Last spring, my daughter graduated from high school and was admitted to Barnard College. Barnard is a small liberal arts college affiliated with Columbia University. Naturally, she would like to make use of a bike to get around New York City. Given that every bike in NYC parked outside for any measurable period is stolen sooner or later, we are loathe to ship her nice bike to NYC - just to have it disappear. The disappearance is all the more likely given my daughter's habit of parking the bike outdoors in the weather much of the time. Hence we would like to find a beater. I take it Craigslist is the usual place one finds these kinds of things. Are there any other places in NYC (or nearby) we might also find such a beater? Extra points if the beater has Rivish accoutrements such as fenders and fattish tires. She would probably be happier with something other than a fixie. As a side note, given that this is move-in weekend and we are in NYC - does anyone have a good recommendation for a tandem rental in Manhattan?
